The Ride
Over the years, even the best naval architects, armed with ever more sophisticated design tools, have been unable to improve upon the smooth, dry ride and ability to handle adverse sea conditions that elevates Bertram above all others. Bertrams are designed to run hard and fast in the most extreme and challenging conditions for some of the world’s most prestigious fishing tournaments. However, these yachts are also created for tranquil, smooth sailing into the world’s most exclusive destinations. Whatever your preference may be, Bertram will get you there quickly, safely and strongly with all of the ease a luxury vessel has to offer.
Bertrams yachts are products of a total synthesis of advanced elements in design and engineering.
Fishing
As an acknowledged leader in the sport fishing arena, Bertram Yacht is committed to delivering everything the avid angler needs to bring in the big one! Nothing puts a boat to the test like deep-sea fishing. Whether you are going flat out in less than favorable conditions to be the first to the early bite, trolling for hours on end or running before a storm, Bertram will get you back to port safely. As fishing machines—and for that matter, as pleasure yachts—what really puts Bertrams in a class by themselves is the confidence their dependable durability instills—this proven ability to get you out and back again safely, no matter the conditions.
On every Bertram, there is dedicated storage for everything the serious angler may need including: rod, tackle, boat hook and gaff storage, all offered as standard on the yachts. In addition, oversized live wells keep your bait active until you reach your favorite fishing spot. Once there, just cast the lines, deploy the outriggers and enjoy the action from the cockpit mezzanine seating area. This elevated vantage point allows for an improved view of the bait spread, so that when you hear the whine of your deploying lines, you’ll begin the battle against trophy catch from the comfort of a fighting chair secured by a standard backing plate in the cockpit sole. Watch any water that may come aboard readily drain into Bertram’s cockpit edge channel system and then overboard, keeping your cockpit floor free of standing water during the fight for the fish.
Once the fight is finished, either grab the tag pole or boat your catch through the oversized transom door with security lift gate. Drop your prize into the large in-floor fish box and race back to the dock, knowing Bertram’s legendary ride will get you there quickly and in comfort, ready to share stories of your conquest or collect that winning tournament check.
