    Hello from the coast of Washington State! My husband and I own and operate a couple charter boats, but he wants to find ONE boat that's capable of charter (salmon/tuna) AND a bit of cruising. I've done quite a bit of searching, and totally ditched the idea of a boat older than 10 years of age. Well, we still haven't found what we're looking for, and I wrote down 'Bertram' a couple times in my notes. As I recall, a few people recommended them. Sooo.... tell me where to begin. We're thinking in the 32-38' range. I did a quick search on yachtworld, and there are some fine-looking Bertrams out there, but I saw some junk too. Any other suggestions besides Bertrams? Looking to pay around $120,000 max. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
