2025 Bay Rider 25 Offshore

Bay Rider has been working on the Bay Rider 25 Offshore for the better part of 3 years and we are proud to announce that it has arrived and ready for your inspection.  We are excited to show you what we have built, and we know this boat will offer you one of the best values on the water today.

We have been working with Architect Dan Mielke from OneDesign to build what we feel is the perfect marriage of a true offshore fishing platform with a creature comfort family cruising boat that the entire family can enjoy out on the water.  This attention to detail makes our boats different from every other builder because we sweat the small things that both a fisherman and a family want to see in today’s boats on the water.  As with all of our boat lines, you really can have a fishing boat that will satisfy the family as a weekend cruiser.

The Bay Rider 25 Offshore incorporates a sharp deadrise at the transom and the bow for those rides offshore in rough water, yet the family safety is not forgotten with our signature high freeboard at the amidships as well as the stern of the boat. Of course the traditional Carolina Bow Flair is there like all of our Bay Rider boats. For additional safety, we will have a wraparound hand rail recessed inside the forward fish/storage boxes.

The gallery of pictures and drawings will show the general layout of the Bay Rider 25 Offshore and how we designed the forward seating to not interfere with the fisherman, as it allows easy 360 degree walking around the interior while fighting that fish. There is a 5’ long fish box/storage box in the floor forward of the console which will hold either your large fish or your island chairs for the cruise. Forward seating boxes are fully foamed and drain overboard while also being able to store your very large fish.   We have a livewell in the rear Euro transom that holds 32 gallons and for the fisherman that needs more, we offer an optional live well leaning post that will hold approximately 45 additional gallons.  There will be a fold down bench seat in the rear as well.  Fuel tank capacity on the Bay Rider 25 Offshore is 160 gallons for a long cruising range to the canyons.

The walkdown console has almost 6’ of headroom and will house the batteries on a built in shelf that is part of the console and not under your feet when you are inside the console.  All water on the deck will drain via the transom door and not through in floor scuppers like most competitors. This means any water you might take in the boat from an unexpected wave, will quickly and safely escape out the back of the boat much faster than in floor drains; a true self bailing boat.
