Hello,

Does anyone have one of these boats? Is it a good boat? Is there
anything I should know before considering buying this boat? Thanks in
advance for your time!

Happy Boating,

You should have any 10-year old boat looked at pretty carefully before
purchase.

What sort of boats were the 1997 Bayliner Ciera 2355 models when new?
(and) What sort of boat is this specific unit I'm considering, what
shape is it in, and how does it compare with most 10-year-old boats?
Are two completely different questions. The one you are interested in
may be better than, or worse than "most" 1997 2355's, and you won't
know just by considering the general reputation.

If you drop over to www.baylinerownersclub.org you might find several
people who actually own that make and model. Their combined experience,
(for instance, if they have *all* had a common problem), would be a lot
more valid than a lot of the comments you might find elsewhere. A
likely majority of the people quick to denounce "all Bayliners" have
never owned one, but like to repeat scuttlebutt. (Don't we all?)

Good luck!

Thanks so much for replying to me Chuck. I will check out that group!
Have a good day!
