I loved the Bayliner 3288! It was PERFECT for the Chesapeake Bay, and I
went on many a weekend outing with just my girlfriends. There was a lot
of interior space, and good side decks for the docking crew. We could
also go where many other boats couldn't go because of the shallow draft
(2.8' as I recall) and it was very economical to run. If I had a
complaint it was that the engine room was really tight -- I kept
thinking I wanted to add a generator and couldn't see where it could
possibly go.
Last year I saw a boat on the Rhode River on the western shore of the
Bay, and I thought, "Wow, look at THAT boat! Isn't she beautiful!!"
Turned out to be my old boat. The 3288 has classic lines, and many
ex-sailors or trawler people would complement me on it.
