MM - my Bertram was a 1961 Vintage - very early hull. Originally is was an "open" boat layout, with a small hardtop. When I got it, it wore a "homemade" aluminum tower. I replaced the gas engines with Cummins 6 cylinder diesels out of Dodge trucks, "marinized" by some friends of mine. This was in the early days of fiberglass boats, so this one was extra solid and heavy. Great rough water boat! Last I heard somebody had bought it from the insurance company after the storm and got it fixed up again - probably still fishing somewhere!
Great boats! I ran charters on it for awhile, before the storm got it.
