1981 Bertram Convertible

Norwalk, Connecticut

$249,900

OVER $300k Spent in the last three years to include but not limited to:

Twin Cummins QSM-11's with only 325 hours

Airsepts

New Enclosure

Generator removed, rebuilt and installed

New 32v Rolls Batteries (4)

Underwater lights

The 46 Bertram set the bar for Offshore Blue water Sportfish. Acclaimed by many as "THE BOAT TO HAVE"

FULL TOWER FOR THE FUNCTION AND THE LOOK

PROBLEM- Old, Slow Detroit 8-71 or 8-92 2-stroke (SMOKE) power but we lived with the technology of the time.

WAKE UP TIME- Just what Dr. Bertram ordered- A pair of modern Cummins QSM-11 four strokes.

SEE WHAT 660HP of Cummins QSM-11 Power can do !  

Seller suggest a 27 knot cruise with a 450 NM range thanks to the 650 gallon main tank and the 200 gallon reserve tank. This power wakes up the legendary Bertram Hull.

THIS BOAT IS A FIND!!! You can not duplicate this boat at this price "MUST SEE"

This boat "Sparkles". Tastefully restored and updated to give it the modern look and livability and yet retaining the "Classic" Bertram look. The up-date list is very extensive.

Our intent in this preliminary listing is to point out some of the highlights but in no way is this listing complete. 

Preliminary Listing. Boat is in winter mode on the hard  but we will soon have full photos and video coming.
