Description
Vintage 42 Foot Bertram with Recent restoration work (Bring Offers) motivated seller

The 42 footer is one of Bertram's most successful models. It was built from 1976 to 1987.

In its heyday, the Bertram 42 was a popular model for tournament fisherman all across the United States. Best known for quality construction and seaworthiness, the Bertram 42 is still a sought after fishing boat well past its production run.

The twin Detroit Diesel Straight 671T inboard, 275 HP engines are as reliable as they come, and will most likely provide many additional hours of reliability.

The sportfish/convertible's heavy fiberglass deep-v hull construction has stood the test of time, as evidenced not only by this vessel, but by many others like it that are still being utilized today.

Below deck features a double cabin layout with a spacious main salon, a full head, and a stand-up shower.

Topside, the vessel features outriggers, expanding your casting range well away from the boat.

While we will always attempt to provide you with a TRUE representation of every vessel we market, during any purchase from Pop you will be encouraged to schedule an inspection from an independent, accredited surveyor and every purchase WILL ALWAYS BE subject to your satisfaction with the results from your independent survey and your own personal trial run.

Condition:
This 1976 Bertram 42 appears to be in impressive condition overall. Its condition is better than expected for a boat of this age and utilization.

Although the vessel could benefit from a thorough cleaning, it is operational, and according to the seller, all features are operational.

Recent Maintenance:
Routine preventative maintenance.
