I dislike the pod controls. You cannot control the wheel and the throttles at the same time. You look like a cowboy backing up. In long battles...
While the boat looks nice, the tower is ugly IMHO.
The street here says Viking offered him a boat to use for the time it took to get his $, (so he could buy a Viking)- but Bertram did not want to...
I do not own a Bertram, nor do I have an financial interest in Bertram or it's business activities. However I see no reason to doubt Jiannina's...
Very true, but strange when you see bait and sailfish together- the bait "balls" up even if the sails do not raise so much. Fish interaction is a...
"I saw one boat that came up from Venezuala and it had beds in the engine room and that is where the crew slept. I about died when I saw that and...
What yard is the boat at? Were the pics just taken?
Many animals have body parts that make them look larger than they are, and many fish use longer/larger fins to this use. They also use larger...
C'mon- even a Roosterfish can't throw a roostertail!:p
Anything's possible, but I don't know that anyone wants to have two boats at a time. There are certainly alot of nice SF's out there that might...
Here's a few pics- goes back in the water shortly. :) Props static balanced and so no real need for high speed balance, plus that meant...
She just got a bottom job and "Sea Slide" -(google it), plus other scheduled maint. items. Hull got buffed- changed shaft packing, R&R raw water...
Goes on the bottom tomorrow, Tuesday I may get out the inlet and do a sea trial. No additional prop speed as I thought did not really need it,...
The latest Triton says world wide yacht orders are still growing. I talked with a Allied Marine broker and he said they've sold 8 Bertram SF's in...
You all have it correct in new filters, clean bottom, full tanks and check the tabs. Are those the "stock" props?
Sad but true as the saying goes. While it's bothering, it's really not that bad. It's not always easy to find a "photogenic" bird killed by...
When I worked at the Viking service center many of the captains of the 52's said they would rather be on a 52 than a 56 or 48. I only heard nice...
You list it as a 16v92, but also call it a 149 - the model # is a 92 series, and may look like or started out looking like this. While I'm not...
Yes I do see a reason to not take them at their word- I have actual knowledge of photo's that were staged at and around Midway and nearby islands....
Great Brian. May I suggest you review the other sections of my post because I have a family to feed and a mortgage to pay, so if you have a job...
