1989 Bayliner 3818 Diesel Motoryacht - OWNER TERMs $12k Down - $32,00
The listing
Looking for an affordable path to the liveaboard lifestyle or a spacious river cruiser? This Pacific Northwest classic—the Bayliner 3818 Motoryacht—is available on owner contract terms. Featuring a spacious dual-cabin, dual-head layout (complete with a bathtub!), a comfortable salon, and a fully enclosed extended cockpit hardtop, this boat is built for year-round comfort on the water. The boat is currently freshwater-kept on the Multnomah Channel in Scappoose. While our current marina does not allow liveaboards, there is an excellent liveaboard community located just a couple of miles down the river. This boat is an ideal candidate to pick up, clean up, and move down-river to make your floating home dreams a reality! OWNER FINANCING TERMS: Purchase Price: $32,000 Down Payment: $12,000 Monthly Payment: ~$430/month for 5 years (Open to discussing exact terms with the right qualified buyer). THE MAJOR UPGRADES & HIGHLIGHTS: Brand New OEM Fuel Tanks: The original aluminum tanks have already been replaced with brand-new tanks from the original manufacturer. This is a massive, high-dollar structural job you will never have to worry about. Low Hour Hino Diesels: Twin 175hp Hino diesels with only ~1,800 original hours. These Toyota-built blocks are legendary for their longevity and efficiency. True PNW Comfort: Equipped with a hydronic diesel heating system routing to the main stateroom, secondary stateroom, and salon, plus Red Dot engine heat. Great Extras: Custom-installed dishwasher under the salon sink, 2KW Xantrex inverter system with monitor, autopilot, fresh bottom paint within the last 2 years, a functional anchor windlass, a 42” salon TV, and a 32” master TV. (Included: A pair of kayaks on the top deck!) THE SUMMER PROJECT DETAILS (Priced Accordingly): I no longer use the boat and am offering it as-is, priced thousands below market value so the next owner has plenty of equity to do a little summer weekend sweat equity: Port Engine Coolant Leak: The port engine runs smooth but has an untracked coolant leak. It could be a simple hose or a manicooler issue. I have heavily discounted the price to account for this. Batteries: The 4x 6-volt house batteries are currently dead from sitting and will need replacement. Cosmetics: The boat has been sitting next to my floating home and needs a good, thorough exterior pressure wash and interior deep clean to really shine. Trade your rent or high mortgage for life on the river. If you are mechanically inclined and want an incredible deal on a legendary 38-foot diesel cruiser, email me to schedule a viewing.
