Nobody on this forum in 43 pages of posts, ever mentioned the companies name (AA MABRU) doing the fiberglass work on the Bertram line except...
I ran a 57' and if you go on Bertram's website and look at the pictures you can see for yourself. Ok, 25% of the hull is out of the water..........
If the boat did hit a barge or other large object, the damage would be on the hull way below the waterline, not a foot above the waterline. When...
I would say that lack of use, would have caused the piston issue due to corrossion in the cylinder walls. 130 hours in 5 years is only 25 hours a...
Not really. If all of the bulkheads break free from the stringers, the boat will twist and flex throughout, with certain area's that are more...
The problem I see with putting tunnels on a 28 Bertram is that it has such a deep v, that putting tunnels will further reduce any flat surface you...
Due to the cost of the AGM for the house batteries, I would just go with deep cycle lead/acid on the house batteries. You could replace them more...
then why not use the same battery type for both the house and starting? It just sounds like the whole system is getting over-complicated.......or...
A wise captain would have shut the engine down long before it hit the reef
The 72' MY has a nice layout and without the split engine room, you have a roomy engine room and no bilge smell in the boat. I have run a lot of...
The Pronautic charger only puts out 60 amps if you bridge the 3 leads together. Could you run the isolator between starting battery bank and...
There is proof...... Everyone knows about it that is in the industry. The first Certifiable was oil canning.....the stringers were breaking free...
Does this mean they are going to pull out of Yachts entirely? It sounds like they plan on doing both.....which would be good to keep all of the...
Well for those that are not informed. The 70' Bertram "Certifiable" was the owner's warranty replacement for his 63' Bertram "Certifiable" where...
It's the first I've heard of it. Where is the 70' Certifiable docked right now?
I grew up and became responsible a long time ago. I found out it's a lot cheaper to get paid to run everyone else's boats around and playing with...
That is completely untrue. If it is a true displacement hull, you give up very little range to weight. I cut my teeth on a custom 97' motoryacht...
I do occasional charters on a 75' Hatteras (was a 65' MY) as Captain for the charters. I am not his full time Captain. Unfortunately we only...
I agree with this completely. And what to add, it's either 1000rpm's or less, or cruise rpm......The in-betweens are never efficient.
That's because the crew stateroom is one of the guest staterooms or of the same quality. The crew stateroom is actually nicer then 1 or 2 of the...
