I want to buy a cover for my boat but there are a lot of options. I need to know how to id the exact model of bayliner that I have. The length is 16'10" on the reg. So is it a 1600 or 1700 or a 170 or ??? I have searched high and low with the HID but no luck for this info. Only basics that I already have. Thanks for any help in advance.
HID is bl3d57cri788
1988 bayliner capri
85HP froce motor

Have you contacted Bayliner? You have the HIN, so they should be able to help. (360) 435-8957

I went to the bayliner web site and contacted customer service with my HIN. They sent me my model number and a PDF of the owners manual. Less than a day turnaround. That was 2 weeks ago.

In NADA for 1988 Capri series, the 1700 is the only logical choice. That is if the boat is a bowrider, not a cuddy.

Refer to my signature. Substitute the word "Cuddy" for "Bowrider" if applicable.;)

Bo, in NADA, they call the 17' cuddy a 1702. Is that not accurate?
