Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Bayliner 249 2006 vs Bayliner 335 Cruiser Cruiser 2012 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Bayliner 249 2006 vs Bayliner 335 Cruiser Cruiser 2012 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 300 hp, the Bayliner 249 2006 has a 40-hp advantage over the Bayliner 335 Cruiser Cruiser 2012's 260-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Bayliner 249 2006 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Bayliner 335 Cruiser Cruiser 2012 caps at 10. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Bayliner 249 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Bayliner 249 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 11 passengers and at 24,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Bayliner 335 Cruiser Cruiser 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 10 that costs less to run day-to-day.
