Hi gang, Rick Ostler here from North American Waterway bringing you Bayliner Parts and Bayliner Boats along with news and views from the boating industry. Here is a boat review on the new 2009 Bayliner 185 Bow Rider Boat with Flight Package.

Without a doubt, the Bayliner 185 has been one of the most popular bow rider boats under 20 feet world wide. The 185 has always been a great family boat, excellent for taking the kids out on the water for a day of fishing or tubing.

The large stern sun pad makes for a comfortable day of relaxing and sun tanning. The 185 is easy to tow from lake to lake with a towing road weight of 3000 pounds.

With a standard base price around $16,000 (at the time this article was written), you can easily understand why the Bayliner 185 is on so many bow rider boat buyers short list.

Some of the standard features are;

1. Corner starboard jump seats which can be flipped upside down so they can be used as steps to get to the transom or fishing platform.
2. The cockpit seats are deep, an excellent security feature especially for children. Also makes for a warmer boat outing in early spring or late fall when cooler weather is upon us.
3. The stereo system is a Jensen 129 watt with two marine speakers and a MP3 jack, providing plenty of sound for this size of boat.

The Optional Bayliner 185 Flight Package

The optional flight package comes with a custom wakeboard tower, additional Jensen marine stereo speakers, adjustable bimini top, spreader lights and an extended swim platform.

Powered with a Mercury Marine Mercruiser 4.3 inboard/outboard engine with a top speed of 50 m.p.h. The Bayliner 185 planes out quickly (3-4 seconds) fast enough for towing water sports fun all day long.

This is why year after year the Bayliner 185 has been one of the most popular bow rider boats the boating industry has seen.

2009 bayliner 194 Ski and Fish

Why will the Bayliner 194 Ski and Fish boat in Big Demand? Eighteen and nineteen feet bow rider boats have been most sought after family boats in the boating industry over the last twenty years. The Bayliner 194 Fish and Ski is no exception.

The redesigned 194 is a versatile boat, whether you are enjoying a day of skiing, pulling a tube or trying to catch that big large mouth bass on the lake everyone is talking about.

The Bayliner 194 comes standard with some really creative features…..Trolling motor, fishing rod casting decks and a unique livewell that also acts as a fish cutting board. You will find the livewell located under the stern bench seat at back of boat.

Another feature is a top notch marine sound system which comes with an mp3 jack and cd player which you will find inside the glove box.

The trolling motor located on the port side of bow is wireless with a remote enabling you to control directions while you are anywhere in the boat. I think this would be a great advantage for fisherman.

The cockpit interior consists of two very comfortable bucket seats, a stern bench seat and a really cool feature; a fisherman’s casting seat hidden under the stern sun pad that is easily accessible.

The bow interior consists of two bow cushions and another fisherman’s casting seat on a adjusting pedestal.

The Bayliner 194 Ski and Fish is powered with a Mercury Marine Mercruiser 4.3L. The boats overall length is 19 feet with a beam width of 7 ft. 11 inches. And can seat up to nine people comfortably.
