Vessel Description

 EXCEPTIONAL 50 BERTRAM - TONS OF UPGRADES - READY TO GO!

Proper Re-Fit and Modification - See Extensive Re-Fit List Below

The Betram 50 Convertible ranks among the best-selling sportishing boats in her size ever produced. Combining handsome lines, quality construction, and excellent performance, the Bertram 50 was a state-of-the-art boat in her day with few serious competitors. Built on a rugged deep-V hull with cored hullsides and moderate beam, her superb seakeeping and handling qualities are almost legendary. Most Bertram 50 Convertibles were sold with a standard three-stateroom interior galley up design like "AQUIALA II".

"AQUILA II" has been greatly modified and re-fit with new equipment. Her age grants classic status, yet her condition is excellent. The interior spaces have been well preserved and left period correct. Aquila II's extensive re-fit was driven by purpose and professionalism. The seller tastefully rigged this Bertram to reflect a proper west coast sportfisher and took no short cuts along the way. "AQUILA II" has had both Mans D2480LXE diesel engines rebuilt. The 2 original generators from the lazerette have been removed and a brand new 12.5KW northern lights generator has been relocated in the engine room. Don’t miss your chance…

Come see this purist designed iconic sportfisher for yourself!
