Rare Custom One Owner 1973 Bertram 31' Center Console with 2006 Twin Yanmar Diesel Engines with only 80 hours!

Rare 1973 Bertram Center Console Sport Fisherman with a Short Tuna Tower. This Bertram was repowered with 2006 Twin Yanmar 4 cylinder diesel motors, with approximately 80 hours since installed!

Many people love the Bertram, but how often do you see one with a center console and a cuddy cabin. This boat was a custom order, and now the owner must part with his long-time friend due to health reasons; he has loved and cared for this Bertram since new.

Condition:

According to the owner, the boat is in good running condition. The vessel is started and ran every two weeks, and the bottom is cleaned every month.

The boat is a project, needs TLC. The engines are beautiful and still shine. There is some recent decay in the rear transom interior panel, likely not structural, see last photo.

This Bertram was a custom boat, and manuals and actual specs are no longer available due to her vintage age.

Buyers should use the due diligence period to verify features and specs provided by the owner.
