Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 vs Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a modified vee Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 against a deep vee Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 at 17,5 ft versus Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 at 18,8 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 tips the scales at 2 278 lbs — 525 lbs less than the Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 at 1 753 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 tops out at 135 hp. Engine specs for the Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 21 gal and 23 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Bayliner 195 DIS 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 18,8 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Bayliner 170 Bowrider 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
