2008 Bayliner 245 SB, EUR 39,500

This Bayliner 245 SB Ciera lies in the south of France, in the harbour of Fréjus, and is ready to go straight out on the water. With only 230 engine hours on the 260 hp MerCruiser 5.0 MPI V8 and its Bravo 3 duoprop sterndrive, this is a boat that has been cherished rather than used hard.

The boat is in very good condition. Since it came to France it has been fully serviced every single year by a professional yard under a standing annual contract: hauled out, engine and drive oil changed, filters and anodes replaced, antifouling renewed, engine winterised, and engine and electrics checked again before the spring launch.

On board

The 245 SB is a proper little cruiser. Under the sunbridge you'll find a surprisingly roomy cabin with 1.83 m standing headroom, a V-berth forward that converts to a double, and a transverse double berth aft under the cockpit — sleeping four in total. There's a separate heads compartment with marine toilet, hot and cold pressurised water, plus a well-equipped galley with sink, cooker, electric stove, microwave, refrigerator and freezer. Large side windows and hatches keep it bright and well ventilated.

The cockpit has an L-shaped seating area that converts into a sun lounger, with a convertible canvas top for shade or shelter. Aft there's a generous integrated swim platform with boarding ladder and deck shower — perfect for swimming, snorkelling or watersports in the bays around Fréjus, Saint-Raphaël and Saint-Tropez. Underwater lights make the evenings at anchor something special.
