1993 Bayliner 2452 Ciera classic

Step aboard this 2452 Ciera Classic and you’ll notice how much boat Bayliner fit into 24 feet. The hardtop and tall windshield give great protection from wind and spray, so you can extend your season well beyond perfect-sun weekends. Wide side decks and sturdy rails make it easy to move forward to handle lines or drop the hook. Inside, the big cabin windows keep things bright, and the dinette feels more like a small coastal cruiser than a trailerable weekender. Owners love the huge cockpit for crabbing gear, beach toys, or a couple of deck chairs when you’re on the hook. It’s a practical, no-nonsense layout that’s easy to keep clean and simple to live with.

This 2452 shines in local waters where conditions can swing from flat calm to choppy in a single afternoon. The hardtop, deep cockpit, and high freeboard give extra confidence when afternoon winds kick up, while the relatively modest draft lets you nose into quiet coves, sandbars, and smaller marinas others skip. It’s compact enough for trailering to different ramps and exploring new shorelines, but still has the overnight comfort to stretch a day trip into a full weekend. For anglers, the open cockpit and easy-to-wash surfaces make it a capable fishing platform that transitions seamlessly into a family cruiser when rods go back in the racks.
