Bayliner 3218 Motoryacht Flybridge Motor Yacht
1987–1989
The Bayliner 3218 Motoryacht belongs to the 32xx family of compact flybridge cruisers and uses twin inboards, a lower helm and a two-stateroom interior to deliver unusually high accommodation volume for its length. Diesel Hino installations are common, although gasoline versions also exist.

About this record
B-Atlas preserves uncertainty: missing information remains unknown rather than being treated as a negative. Specifications and guidance describe the model record; individual boats can differ by year, equipment, refit and condition.
