Bayliner 2855 Cierra

1998 Bayliner 2855 Cierra with Mercruiser EFi V8 5l petrol engine fitted new in 2014. This is a nicely presented 4+2 berth sports cruiser with recent upgrades to the interior and a very sociable cockpit/entertaining area.

The Bayliner 2855 Cierra is known for its impressive blend of comfort, performance, and style. It is a versatile and affordable cruiser perfect for exploring the coast and equally at home on the inland waterways. With a well designed layout, and roomy interior, this boat can comfortably accommodate up to 6 passengers. The cabin features a well equipped galley, a convenient dining area which will convert to a double berth if required, a large double berth forward and toilet/shower compartment for added convenience.

The Mercruiser engine delivers outstanding performance whether at high speed on the coast or enjoying a leisurely cruise on the rivers, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced boaters. There is ample deck space which allows for easy movement and entertaining. The large cockpit area is perfect for fishing, sunbathing, or enjoying a sunset cruise – the sunpad provides an extra double berth if needed. With ample storage compartments, you can easily stow away your gear and keep the deck clutter-free. Easy access to the cockpit is via the bathing platform and transom door.

Power Prop

PLUS…

Indestructible Composite Shaft: Pound for pound, our composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and won’t break, kink or corrode.

Cool, Quiet, Power: Nothing runs cooler or more quietly than a Minn Kota. Our extra large windings and commutators dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended battery power, and longer motor life. And our unique bearing system reduces friction to cut fish-spooking noise. So quiet, they’ll never hear you coming.
