This 1989 Bertram 43 Convertible is a fiberglass sportfish built to endure. Twin Detroit Diesel V692 engines, each producing 550 hp, were rebuilt in 2022 and have since accumulated only 100 hours of running time. The boat carries 2020 Garmin electronics across three multifunction displays—two at the helm on the flying bridge and one in the salon—along with GPS, radar, autopilot, and an upgraded Fusion stereo. A 2025 generator and newly installed air-conditioning units from 2025 and 2026 round out the mechanical systems.
The layout centers on a generous salon with high-end wood paneling, a large bar, dining table, and comfortable seating. An adjacent galley is fully equipped with dual refrigerators, a two-burner stovetop, microwave, and substantial cabinet storage. Two staterooms provide overnight accommodation: a master cabin with an ensuite bathroom and a second cabin with twin bunks. Each stateroom includes a flatscreen television and ample closet space. Two full bathrooms serve the accommodations.
Topside, the flying bridge features dual captain's chairs, wrap-around seating, and full helm controls. A tower station with bench seating and controls sits higher still. The deck is rigged for fishing with outriggers, numerous rod holders, a livewell, and a 2024 outdoor freezer. Practical amenities include dual rinsedown systems, a large swim platform with steps, full canvas shade, and rod storage integrated into the salon ceiling. A dinghy with davit-launch capability is included with new upholstery throughout.
