Nominated for the Best of Boats Award 2025

We’re thrilled to announce that the brand-new Bayliner C21 is now home from the Southampton Boat Show, and although this model is sold, viewing may still be arranged at Bates Wharf Marine Sales, Poole.

Even more excitingly, it has been nominated for the Best of Boats Awards 2025 in the “Best for Beginners” category.

Why the C21 Stands Out

The Bayliner C21 is more than just a new model — it’s a statement of what modern small-boat design can achieve. With sleek lines, intuitive layout, and usability features that appeal to both first-time boaters and seasoned weekend cruisers, it strikes the balance between performance, comfort, and accessibility.

A Prestigious Nomination: Best of Boats Awards 2025

The Best of Boats Awards (BOB Awards) are among the most respected accolades in the boating industry. A jury composed of editors, test managers, and experts from Europe and the USA rigorously evaluate entries across multiple categories.

This year, the Bayliner C21 has been shortlisted as a finalist in the “Best for Beginners” category — a testament to its design, usability, and appeal for newcomer boaters. The final award ceremony will take place on 27 November 2025 in Berlin during BOOT & FUN.

Being nominated is already a significant endorsement — it shows the C21 competes at a high standard in its class.

Whether you’re new to boating or looking for a fresh, versatile cruiser — the C21 is a model built for fun, confidence, and next-level enjoyment on the water.
