1985 Bayliner 4550 Pilothouse

General Description

With over 350 built during her decade of production, the Bayliner 4588 Pilothouse (called the 4550 Pilothouse in 1984-88) has long been recognized as one of the best big-boat buys in the industry. Her classic Pacific Northwest profile is timeless, and an affordable price and comfortable accommodations make her an appealing boat in today's used market.

Built on a low-deadrise, fully cored hull with a shallow 15-inch keel, the Bayliner's raised pilothouse floorplan includes two double staterooms as well as a third stateroom/office that opens into the master stateroom. The galley offers full size fridge and freezer, stovetop, oven, microwave, two sinks, and plenty of storage. Sits comfy with L couch around table, and two reclining heated massager chairs. Both heads share a common tub/shower facility, which is a rare find. On deck, a bridge overhang shelters the small cockpit where a pair of hatches in the sole provide access to the engine room. Additional features include a well-arranged flybridge with a dinghy davit, port and starboard pilothouse deck doors, a transom door, and wide walkways. Standard 220hp Hino diesels (250hp beginning in 1991) cruise at 16-17 knots at close to a mile per gallon-excellent economy for a 45-foot yacht. Dinghy is included. Has a 20 hp Honda with steering and throttle controls. Seats 5 for perfect cruise around the bay or run to the local grocery stores.

This is a great live aboard with a transferable front row slip.
