Bayliner has long been defined by having its entire deckboat lineup powered by sterndrives, but that is about to change. This 190 DB marks a departure from that line of thinking with its new outboard-powered deckboat. She features unique storage, a redesigned stern, and she’s even offered with a head option… something rare of in a boat this size.

Bayliner recently launched three new deckboat models and we think they could write a new chapter in the Bayliner saga. The 215 DB has much more functionality than the boat it replaces and a full interior fiberglass liner. Equally as important, the model has style as well. We think beef with sizzle is a winning combination. The boat also has a surprising number of innovations, plus several good design details we have been urging builders to incorporate for years. We tested this boat with the wind howling at 20 knots and a long fetch so we got insight into how she handles in conditions beyond her job description.
