The question seems to come up often. How far can you safely go in your boat?
The answer seems to vary, but the first step is to figure out just how far people have actually cruised in their Bayliners, and take it from there.
I’ve taken two Bayliners from where I purchased them in the Seattle area, to my home port(s) in Alaska.
This trip is over 1500 Nautical miles, and involves crossing the Gulf of Alaska, which as a trivia thing, happens to be the furthest open water voyage required to travel in North America at 210 NM.
The first trip was in 2003 with our 3488 Bayliner, and the second trip was in 2014 in our 4788 Bayliner.
These two trips convinced me that Coastal Cruising anywhere in North America is possible, as long as you watch the weather, and are willing to sit in port for a good weather window.
How far have you taken Your Bayliner??
