1969 Bertram 31

This 1969 Bertram 31 is a fiberglass cruiser powered by twin Yanmar diesel engines producing 630 horsepower. The boat has a beam of 11 feet 2 inches and combines the classic design and seaworthiness the model is known for with modern systems and upgrades accumulated over decades of active cruising.

The yacht underwent major renovation work in 2000 when the Yanmar engines and stainless running gear were installed. A comprehensive overhaul followed in 2016 that included new teak decks, updated interior upholstery and electronics, a swim platform, and an electric windlass. The 2020 refit involved new windows, sandblasting, and Awlgrip painting to refresh the hull. A new head and sanitation system was added in 2023 to achieve USCG compliance, along with new engine mounts, shafts, struts, and turbocharger and heat exchanger service.

Additional upgrades include replacement turbos and heat exchangers in 2019, new AGM batteries and Propspeed application in 2022, and various other service and maintenance work documented throughout. The boat is equipped with an auxiliary fuel tank, live bait well, and fresh and saltwater washdowns, making it well-suited for fishing. One head and full sanitation facilities are aboard.

All service records are available. This is a classic Bertram that has been continuously maintained and upgraded rather than left unchanged, with systems kept current through regular professional work.
