Itchy Fins - 2006 Bayliner 265 Cabin Cruiser

Meet Itchy Fins a high-volume cruiser with a wide 2.87m beam and an almost oblate-shaped amidships as a result of its full deck and cabin sides. There's headroom below to create comfortable indoor living and a thoughtfully designed moulded liner for cruising and entertaining by day.

The transom is traced by a full-length boarding platform, the aforementioned aftermarket davit clips for the ducky, handy cleats, water and waste connectors, and useful grabrails. The swim ladder is tucked under the platform, which itself has room to sit and dangle the toes. A hot/cold handheld shower is nearby for post-swim rinses and early morning showers.

Access to and from the cockpit is via the wide starboard-side transom door or by stepping on the non-skid gunwales and using the moulded internal step. The self-draining cockpit sole should be easy to keep clean. Clip-in cockpit carpet was fitted as an option for those family days aboard.

There are moulded steps in the dash and a centre-opening windscreen. The bowrail is a one-piece design, but a split rail with a gate-style lifeline would allow you to take guests over the bow. The non-skid-topped foredeck is flat for secure footing. There is room to dangle a line or sit with a sundowner, providing the orientation is right.
