1980 Bertram 42 Convertible

This 1980 Bertram 42 Convertible is a fiberglass convertible powered by twin Detroit diesel engines producing 870 horsepower combined. The boat measures 42 feet in length with a beam of nearly 15 feet, offering a solid platform built for rough water and long-range cruising. The hull design reflects Bertram's reputation for seaworthiness and durability.

Below deck, the layout prioritizes comfort and functionality. The saloon features a convertible lounge and plenty of natural light.

The master stateroom aft provides a large bed and ensuite head with shower. Forward, a second cabin holds two oversized berths with an adjacent head and shower.

The starboard engine was rebuilt in 2025 with new turbos, injectors, and remanufactured heads; it has 20 hours since rebuild. The port engine received new turbos and injectors in 2018. The interior features custom oak cabinetry. Recent updates include new headliner material and modern dimmable DC lighting throughout.
