1989 Bertram 50 Convertible

General Description

1989 Bertram 50' Convertible powered by a pair of MAN 10 Cylinder 820HP engines which were placed in the boat in 2003. This boat has been meticulously maintained by its current owner since 2019 and is only a two-owner boat. It has been used for cruising the East Coast a times, predominantly used here on the Chesapeake Bay for summer cruising and travel. The boat has had some tasteful upkeep and upgrading including items such as a new Cummins Onan Genset, newer electronics (listed below), and more. The exterior has been detailed very well and the interior looks as clean as can be. Overall, a very well-kept piece, operates well, and is ready to be enjoyed by its next owners. Located in Norfolk, VA. For immediate help please contact Connor Hall at 757-968-2353.
