1976 Bertram 42 Convertible

This 1976 Bertram 42 Convertible is a fiberglass hull built to the design standards that made the brand a recognized name in offshore fishing. The boat spans 42 feet with a 14.83-foot beam, offering an open layout suited to anglers and families alike.

The single diesel engine was refit in 2008 with a Cummins 450 hp powerplant, which has accumulated only 326 operating hours. The boat cruises at 20 knots consuming approximately 32 gallons per hour, with a top speed of 28 knots. Navigation and communication equipment includes a Garmin chartplotter, autopilot, and VHF radio, all installed in 2016. A Northern Lights generator provides shore power and backup electrical capacity.

Maintenance records show the hull bottom was serviced in fall 2016. The open deck configuration and seagoing reputation of the Bertram 42 design provide both comfort and capability for extended operations.
