Todays assignment this Bertram 42 Pre-Purchase Marine Survey in Preveza Greece


Bertram has a well-deserved reputation for building rugged, high quality boats. Bertram has an interesting history, for it was one of the three first production boat companies to start up in 1961 along with Hatteras and the Henry Hinckley Company, all known for producing top quality boats that have survived to this day.  Well, almost, for the current status of Bertram seems to be that it is teetering on the edge of extinction.







 Model- Detroits 671T1 (2 stroke diesel)

Year of Manufacture- 1980
No. of Engines- 2
HP (Each)- 425 HP each!




Quality fiberglass fuel tanks. Bullet proof!  





The reputation of Bertram is built on rough and rugged sport fishermen based on the original Ray Hunt design that produced boats that keep on going when others had to put into port.

Yacht Survey on this Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 50 DS in Preveza Greece

Todays Inspection was on this Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 50 DSThis was the owner's version layout and boasted an impressive aft owner's cabin with a spacious en-suite plus two large double forward cabins. This was a great example of the popular 50 DS with the most sought after layout. 

Its construction is sound, and it’s an easy-to-sail vessel with an electrically assisted sailplan, a lot of entertainment space, and a cleverly designed convertible interior. 

She was equipped with an optional 110-horsepower diesel that could drive it to hull speed with a bit of throttle to spare. 

Copper coat epoxy antifouling should last for years!





Check out the engine test. - Mastervolt heavy duty alternator 130A* (additional)

3 Blade 20" Flexofold self folding.
