Classic offshore performance meets modern refinement in this 1980 Bertram 38' Sport Fish Mk 3. Having undergone a comprehensive restoration between 2017 and 2018, this vessel maintains its legendary build quality while incorporating significant mechanical and cosmetic upgrades. The hull, constructed in fiberglass with vinylester resin, provides the signature stability expected of this iconic builder. With a length of 11.5 meters and a beam of 4.03 meters, it is perfectly suited for enthusiasts of both cruising and sport fishing.
Powering this sport fish are twin Caterpillar 3208 engines, each delivering 380HP, with 750 total hours since their 1996 installation. The vessel features a dual helm configuration, allowing for precise control from both the flybridge and the interior. Notable technical enhancements during the restoration include a bow thruster, a zero-houred 8kW Onan diesel generator, PSS mechanical shaft seals, and a reconditioned shaft and propeller system. The integration of modern navigation electronics, including dual GPS plotters and sounders, ensures reliable performance at a cruising speed of 21 knots and a maximum speed of 26 knots.
The interior has been painstakingly updated to reflect the original mahogany design, featuring new upholstery in the salon and flybridge. Accommodations consist of two private cabins plus a convertible salon, providing comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to six guests. The galley is equipped with a 2020 ceramic cooktop and new refrigeration, while the head includes a separate shower box and electric toilet. Additional comforts include air conditioning, private Wi-Fi connectivity, and a new hydraulic stainless steel gangway.
Externally, the boat showcases a reinforced transom with an integrated door, an enlarged swim platform, and polished stainless steel hardware throughout. The flybridge offers additional sunbathing areas and complete instrumentation. This used boat is currently available in Italy, with the option for a trade-in and a one-year warranty included in the purchase price of 109.000 EUR.
