    Bayliner 305 Review

    One of the things the Modern Boating team liked most of all about the Bayliner 305 was just how well it uses what space it did have. For a boat its size, the Bayliner 305 has a remarkable amount of living room, nothing is cramped.

    Bayliner 305 Diesel Review

    Bayliner boats are aimed squarely at family boating and Bayliner's latest 30-footer is an ideal vessel for long weekends away. Plus, it doesn't matter if you have more members than the average family (two adults and two and a half children), because this boat can sleep up to eight people.

The lower station looks more like the flight deck on a 747, but it's extremely well laid out, with easy to read gauges.

    Azzura 100 Motor Yacht Review

    There's a big move by some larger motoryacht buyers in Australia these days away from the ultra-modern, high-speed superyachts to more classic boat designs. The shift seems to go hand-in-hand with the lifestyle changes these people are adopting.
