This Bayliner 5288 Pilothouse Motor Yacht stands as a timeless example of luxury, performance, and functionality tailored for discerning owners who appreciate comfort without compromise. As one of the final models produced before the line transitioned to the Meridian 540 Pilothouse, this 52-foot yacht captures the essence of high-end cruising with exceptional value.
The 5288 offers superb stability and an impressively spacious layout. Her commanding presence on the water is matched by elegant interior accommodations that rival many custom-built vessels in her class. Inside, the yacht features a thoughtfully designed three-stateroom layout. The full-beam master suite offers a king-size bed, en-suite head with tub and shower, and ample storage. A forward VIP stateroom with a queen berth and a third stateroom with over-under bunks comfortably accommodate guests or family. This vessel is also equipped with a washer and dryer for ease of use for longer adventures.
The salon is warm and inviting, with panoramic windows that flood the space with natural light, plush seating areas, and an updated entertainment system perfect for socializing or unwinding after a day on the water. Adjacent to the salon, the upgraded galley is outfitted with premium Bosch appliances, offering everything needed to entertain in style or prepare gourmet meals. The dining area across from the galley serves as a relaxed gathering spot for casual meals or conversation.
Command and navigation are a breeze from the pilothouse, which features an ergonomic helm, upgraded radar and electronics, and expansive windows providing unobstructed 360-degree views. For outdoor enjoyment, the flybridge is a standout, offering an extended lounge area with comfortable seating, a wet bar, grill, and ample space for entertaining under the open sky.
Powered by twin Cummins QSM 11 diesel engines, the Bayliner 5288 delivers reliable and smooth cruising performance, whether along the coast or on extended adventures. A 40gph watermaker and rewired 120v system reflect the current owner's commitment to meticulous maintenance and care.
The tender is a Walker Bay hard bottom RIB. It can be lowered into the water by the crane from the top deck. Powering the tender is an Evinrude 30hp E-Tec outboard.
This vessel has benefited from thoughtful upgrades and consistent upkeep. From bow to stern, pride of ownership is evident in every detail. The 2002 Bayliner 5288 offers a perfect blend of comfort, capability, and style ready for her next chapter on the water.
