Well, we did cut the pulpit off. The original USCG report shows LOA 49'11" if not mistaken. So she *might* be very close to 46. ha ha ha
Good question. Capt'n and Broker were on the boat when sold new to Seller. It was used under agreement for regional boat shows for a few years....
thank you for this information. I’ll remain optimistic seller will work with us on this, as well as the other deficiencies inherent with a 20 yr...
Buddy boat is swinging 32x50 - 5 blade veems, not rollas. And it’s a tower boat with fishing gear and davit. This open bridge should be faster,...
Interest in a pretty sweet refit B50 with new cats? https://www.boattrader.com/boat/1988-bertram-2020-b50-7949158/

Really good perspective, thanks guys. Just as an aside, props weren’t stamped properly for us to confirm size during survey. Seller advised...
Door was in fact open, yes.
Interesting insight. Had a similar challenge post-repower on our B50 with new cats (replaced 8v92) because we were under propped badly - likely...
Nope. Nada. Exactly.
Smoke cleared instantly. Motors sound great. Still pending report, so don’t know gallons used but will ask.
I might know a guy who knows a guy who specializes in knee deconstruction. Ha ha j/k
Yes, 100% agree on having good prop shop. Boat is empty. No scans that I’m aware of but I will ask broker for performance data from delivery...
Agreed. Didn’t get the weight. Hoping it’s in the survey report.
Too soon to say if we’ll walk. Still gathering info. I think it will revolve around seller’s willingness to work towards a resolution and who’s...
My logic and the research, what little info there is, tells me we should see 30kn at 75% and 32 at 80% for this boat. Fuel comment from captain...
