Nobody wants a cramped engine room you have to lay on top of the motors to work on in that size boat. They don't want an engine room period. You...
I've run boats that had them and used them. But don't have a long term experience with any of them.
I would think they probably use a different pump with the different HP levels. More HP needs more cooling water and a larger pump is my guess.
Yes a non matching hull color would look good....fighting lady yellow (the pale one), ice blue, etc. The house/super structure looks good in...
Engine and generator maintanence/repairs $10-15k per year. General repairs on hull stuff and replacing broken systems or cushions, or strataglass,...
Quite frankly for a US owner and boat destined to go to the US I would wait and do the refit in the US. Between the language barrier and the lack...
I agree and I did just that. Went to Lauderdale and Palm Beach. I couldn't believe how much Palm Beach has grown. Is it me or is the in the...
The pods can be removed and re-installed pretty easily.
Not including dockage or fuel. I would say $50-75k a year. $75k a year when you factor in the longterm expenses that need to be done and pop up...
Trucking is less wear and tear considering you don't have a flybridge that has to come off. However, Chicago to NYC is a beautiful...
That's a good plan. You know Bertram also built non sportfish boats as well that seem to have gotten lost in the shuffle, but have their own...
Yes, I would check and/or change these.
At least here in the U.S. that size is completely dead and completely taken over by large Center Consoles. People would rather have speed, rent a...
Problem is. Bertram already tried a re-invented 54' the 57'. It didn't sell all that well. The 63' outsold it much much better. I think they...
Problem is, 58' sportfish are not selling right now. It's a dead market. The SF market that is selling like hot cakes really is 70' and above.
Try Marine Gear in Fort Lauderdale. I've bought rebuilt Westerbeke electrical ends with a new stator for around $2k from them.
They're both good boats and both drastically different. My choice would be the Fleming, but again at a much higher price. Based on looks and...
The Hatteras EX 45' comes in at just under $2 million when outfitted with everything. But they have no problems selling them. The Bertram seems...
I think there is a voltage regulator that is adjustable on those that you can adjust to get the voltage up to 120-125 volts, as well.
Well in the video, there was water on the floor in the cabin. My guess is in the picture of it with all the people on it, it got towed into shore...
