2000 Bayliner 5788 Pilothouse

The 5788 layout is a standout. The full-beam master stateroom is located amidships (under the pilothouse), featuring a centerline queen berth, abundant teak joinery, and an en-suite head with a tub/shower. The VIP stateroom forward has an island queen berth, plenty of storage, shared head with private access. The third stateroom (port side) offers offset bunks – perfect for guests or children.
