2003 Bayliner Ciera 285 Cruiser for Sale – New 350HP MerCruiser Mag Stroker – Bravo 3 – Trailer Included!

This 2003 Bayliner Ciera 285 is a well-equipped express cruiser featuring a major recent repower and a long list of desirable upgrades. Powered by a 350HP MerCruiser Mag Stroker installed in 2023 and paired with a Bravo 3 outdrive, this cruiser offers a rare opportunity to own a spacious overnight boat with modernized power and equipment.

The Ciera 285 has long been a popular choice among boaters looking for comfortable overnight accommodations, entertaining space, and weekend cruising capability without moving into a much larger vessel. Its spacious cockpit and well-designed cabin make it equally suited for day cruising, waterfront entertaining, or extended weekends on the water.

Measuring 29'6" in length with a 9'10" beam, the Ciera 285 provides an impressive amount of interior space. The cabin features a forward berth, a second full berth, convertible dinette, galley, and wet head, creating comfortable accommodations for family and guests during overnight trips.

This particular boat stands out thanks to its extensive upgrades, including a Garmin chartplotter with radar, heat and air conditioning, updated cockpit flooring, a new windlass and anchor system, Fusion stereo system with upgraded speakers, and numerous electrical and system improvements completed between 2022 and 2025. The included tri-axle trailer adds significant value and transportation flexibility.
