Why This Boat
The 3055 is one of Bayliner's most-produced mid-cabin cruisers from the 1990s, and the layout is the reason — it sleeps a couple comfortably forward and a second couple in the convertible mid-cabin, with a real galley and an enclosed head between them. For a 30-foot footprint that's a lot of usable interior, and the cockpit is large enough to host a group without crowding the helm.
The headline value is the included 2026 summer dockage at Whiskey Island Marina. Whiskey Island sells out every season and is one of the more sought-after addresses on the Cleveland waterfront — walking distance to the Flats, easy access out to Lake Erie, and a dockage slip alone can run several thousand dollars at current rates. For a buyer who wants to be on the water this summer without sitting on a marina waitlist, that's the larger half of the story.
Twin sterndrives give redundancy and easier docking than a single, and the 5.0L LX is a familiar small-block GM platform with widely available parts and service across the lake. Arch, power windlass, trim tabs, shore power, and transom shower are all already on the boat — what's normally an upgrade list on a cruiser this age is mostly already in place.
