Like the other Bayliner option, this boat has a motor that can support water sports.
Amenities do not come cheaply and this boat is on the more expensive side but is still affordable with a starting price of $34,000. more

The quality of engines and mechanics is a whole 'nuther discussion, but it can impact a boat brand's reputation. [links]
As the saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Also, I am not an expert by any means nor do I know about all boat manufacturers. All I know is that I am 100% satisfied with my Maxum. The boat appears well made, performs very well and is everything it was advertised as being. I bought it new in August 2009 and have not had one issue with the quality and I have been out on her every weekend since I bought it. Maxum is a division of Brunswick who announced at about the time I bought it that they were discontinuing that brand. But, they are standing by the warranty and still make the Bayliner, Sea Ray and Trophy. I know some people do not always speak highly of the line but I am glad I have it.
Silly management/ownership issues aside I think the Genmar brands will come through this. here
Stay away from Genmar Marine, a collection of numerous boat makers. They are so far in debt, many companies are going down the tubes forever. Big names. like Wellcraft, Seaswirl, Four Winns, Hydra Sports, Glastron, Triumph and many more.
2 of my boating buddies have Bayliners and they wish everyday to wake up and realise its been stolen overnight.
Re: Best and worse manufacturers.
Pontoon boats and catamarans often provide the most stable platforms, especially when loading and boating while seated in a powered mobility device. Tom Dennett, a C6-7 quad from Stuart, Florida, says it’s not necessary to lay out a huge wad of money for an accessible pontoon boat. Dennett originally purchased an older pontoon boat that was no longer usable, stripped it down, reinforced it and has now readied it to hit the waterways. The modifications of the craft, now named The Islander, were performed by Tim Clark of Accessible Boatworks in Port St. Lucie, Florida. The company is currently completing a modular lift that will be mounted on the front of the deck to make it possible for wheelchair users to be lifted out of their chairs with a mesh Hoyer lift sling and lowered into the water for swimming or scuba diving.
Gemini Catamarans offers a boat of similar size that is capable of operating at high speed under power or by sail. The Gemini Freestyle 37’s cabin and deck are on the same level, which allows wheelchair users the ability to access all of the boat’s features. Harry Horgan, president of Shake-A-Leg Miami, has driven this boat and says it is easy to access and operate from his wheelchair.
It is not surprising that those who prefer to drive vehicles fast on land would seek out similar opportunities on the water. Ricky James was a motocrosser before becoming paraplegic, then became an Ironman world champion, NASCAR driver, off road truck racer, and X games silver medalist. On the water he prefers to drive the family’s 20.5-foot Bahner open bow boat with a 454-cubic inch Mercruiser engine and out drive. That boat reaches speeds of about 65 mph, and didn’t require any modifications to make it accessible for him to drive.
Midnight Express Boats, located in Miami, has recently introduced a 39-foot high speed cruiser that is capable of reaching 65 nautical miles per hour. One of the owners of the company is paraplegic and designed the boat with an access ramp and seats that are hydraulically operated to raise occupants to the proper level for maximum visibility and ease of operation.
