Defined by its legendary offshore capability, this 1976 Bertram 46 Convertible combines a spacious layout with rugged construction. Measuring 14.2 meters in length, the vessel offers a comfortable configuration with 2 cabins and 2 baths, accommodating up to 12 people. The current owner has maintained the vessel since 2012, ensuring a consistent history of care and upgrades.
Performance is central to the identity of this Bertram model. Powered by engines originally rated at 735 HP and subsequently refined to 600 HP, the boat cruises efficiently at 24 knots with a fuel consumption of 160 l/h at 2,200 RPM, reaching a maximum speed of 33 knots. At 1,800 RPM, it maintains an 18-knot pace consuming 140 l/h. The engines underwent a complete zero-hour rebuild during their installation in 2012.
The vessel has benefited from a series of targeted improvements. Notable updates include a 2011 installation of a teak cockpit and caprail, followed by a 2012 preventative anti-osmosis treatment and the fitting of new propellers. More recent enhancements include the 2020 addition of four service batteries, a refurbished electric windlass, two underwater lights, and deep cleaning of the fuel tanks. Electrical upgrades in 2018 included the transition to LED lighting throughout.
Designed for those who appreciate the heritage of a high-performance sportfish, this boat features practical additions such as both fresh and saltwater cockpit washdown pumps and a stainless steel stern sunshade structure. The layout is optimized for utility, featuring fixed gangway controls in the cockpit and updated motor batteries as of 2021.
This used boat is available for viewing and the seller is open to considering trade-ins involving a Bertram 31, Tiara 30, or Sciallino 33. An agency brokerage commission of 5% plus 22% VAT is applicable, calculated solely on the commission amount.
