The 31 Bertram is a legendary boat that is found around the world and in many of the hottest fisheries on earth! They are known for their toughness, ride and fishability.
This 1970 31 went through a major refit that ended in 2011 that included among other things; interior renovations (dinette, galley and updated v-berth), fiberglassing the front windshield, laminating the fiberglass bridge cowl in place, repairs to the stringer system and hull reinforcement, replacement of machinery and a new Glass Marine fiberglass deck.
She's had numerous upgrades since including but not limited to; 3 sided curtains, Carolina style transom fish box, new Garmin electronics and new Airmar transducer, new fuel tank sender that displays tank level and fuel burn on the Garmin displays and new Lenco trim tabs.
Powered by 2011 370hp Mercruiser 8.1 Horizon reman FW cooled gas motors with approx. 650hrs.
