About
1998 Bayliner 4788 Pilothouse
North Vancouver, BC | Boathouse Kept | Freshwater History
Overview
This is, without question, one of the cleanest Bayliner 4788s to come to market. Boathouse kept her entire life and primarily run in fresh water on the Columbia River until 2023, this vessel presents at a level rarely seen in this model.
The protection of a covered moorage has preserved her finish, gelcoat, and overall condition—she shows significantly better than comparable boats on the market. For buyers who understand the long-term value of boathouse-kept vessels, this is a standout opportunity.
Powered by twin Cummins 370HP diesels with approximately 2,350 original hours, this 4788 has been consistently maintained and recently updated, making her turn-key for the upcoming season.
What truly sets the 4788 apart—and why so many are still actively cruising today—is the layout. Families consistently gravitate to this design as one of the best laid-out boats in the 40–50’ range. The flow between cockpit, salon, pilothouse, and flybridge creates a connected, social environment that naturally brings people together on the water.
An additional bonus is the potential opportunity to assume the current Lynnwood Marina boathouse moorage featuring easy access and desirable western exposure. Contact listing broker for further details regarding moorage availability and transfer requirements.
Key Highlights
