Defined by its legendary deep-V hull design, this 1971 Bertram 31 Fly stands as a testament to the enduring engineering excellence of the Bertram Yacht brand. Originally conceptualized by Ray Hunt for sport fishing in Florida, this vessel has evolved into a sought-after collector classic. Measuring 9.15 meters in length with a 3.3-meter beam, the boat features a robust fiberglass construction that has aged exceptionally well, maintaining its status as a benchmark in marine design.
This specific vessel has been the subject of a meticulous and total refitting process, ensuring it remains in perfect condition for its next owner. Key mechanical updates include the installation of twin 350hp VW diesel engines, which, combined with the hull design, allow for a cruising speed of 28 knots and a maximum speed of 32 knots. Recent maintenance includes a 2022 service of the new inverters, a 2021 Raymarine touchscreen GPS/plotter upgrade, and a complete engine out-of-boat service performed in 2020.
The deck layout prioritizes versatility, centered around a spacious aft cockpit suitable for deep-sea fishing or social gatherings. A ladder on the starboard side provides access to the flybridge, which is equipped with three seats and secondary external steering. The interior offers a compact yet functional living space, including a dinette with a lounge area, a kitchen, a private cabin with V-berths, and a separate bathroom with a shower and toilet. High-end finishes include teak flooring, bleached oak interior paneling, and bespoke beige leather upholstery.
With a price of 210.000 EUR, this boat represents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully updated icon. For further details on this refitted classic or to arrange a viewing, please contact our brokerage team.
