I've got a 1990 50 Bertram and am looking to have some shirts made. I'm looking for the factory drawing of the boat for the shirts, the very basic outline of the vessel. I've attached a picture showing the kind of design I want, but obviously for a 50 Bertram, not the vessel in the picture. HELP!! THANKS!!! Capt. Sean
Put in a call or email to Bertram and ask for thier media kit. The items you are looking for are often included in them.
I've contacted Bertram and they didn't seem to anxious to deal with me. They never called me back and then sent me an e-mail asking about how helpful they were. Needless to say, I just deleted the message. I can't believe I can't hunt it down on the net. I thought for sure a Google image search would have brought one up.
That's unfortunate. Beneteau and Ferretti have been more than helpful with us. Try another call into them, and worst case scenario, with any basic image, and someone with some photoshop skills they can create essentially a wire image which is what you are probably looking for is you are wanting to do logo / embroidery and such. Try checking around for a person who has some familiarity in photoshop to create one for you from an image, should Betram not be of any help.
Sean, I might be able to help. I've got some old CD's from Bertram with line drawings. They are 2000-2003+ era images, but Bertram's haven't changed much since then. Heck, they should retire the molds to the Smithsonian! I'm on my way out of the office right now, but I'll go through my image library tonight.
Try contacting Smallwoods' Yachtwear in Fort Lauderdale. They may have made a shirt for some one along the way. Ask for Jimmy Floyd.
I would greatly appreciate any help you could give me!!! Yeah, the boats didn't change that much, but I would like to keep the design as close to the boat as possible!!! THANKS!!!
