Here's your chance to own a piece of history. This 1988 43' Bertram Convertible HULL #1 was customized for show! Bertram did an incredible job putting in extra effort bringing their new 43' model to market. "Islander 7" previously known as "Marksmanship" hit the bullseye with this design. Her owners have as much pedigree as the brand itself and have spared no expense in maintaining this yacht with an open checkbook. Her efficient and powerful Detroit 6v92's 550hp engines underwent major overhaul along with the gears resealed in the last year. Engines were rebuilt at 2,151 hours. The Port engine has 20 hours and the Starboard engine has 92 hours. This Bristol Bertram 43 is worth coming to see in person.
Her efficient and powerful Detroit 6v92’s were recently overhauled along with many upgrades over recent years.
