This had to be done BEFORE even starting restorations....

- High Tide Boating was approached to manage a restoration project on a 1983 Bertram 35.
We documented much of the project and would like to share it with you.
This is Episode #1... In the Beginning.
We had some repairs to do before we could start the project...
I remember when these boats were new, love them then and love them now. Nice boat's
They are definitely an awesome boat worthy of restoration!!
You’re a natural speaker! Nice work.. looking forward to seeing the rest of your videos!
Thanks for that! Video number 4 should be out in a week or so. Stay tuned...
If Bertram management has any brains they would bring back these 30’s boats with the new epoxy tech. They would rule the mid level sport fishing world. Funny that they still do and haven’t built a new boat since the 80-90s???
I guess it depends where you are in the world. I believe they still make the 35's in the US. And there are some boats like the Formula 233 which have remained the same for years because they found a hull shape that works - so why change it?
But I get what you are saying...
First time i see a 35' Bertram with a bow truster. easier for docking .
Indeed! This is the owners first boat so was nervous about docking..
Found 4 of these boats for sale here in Aus ranging from 110.000 to 170.000 plus one 42ft at 185.000, And I'm guessing the restoration is not a cheep project
you would be correct - the restoration is not cheap. But like any boat, everything depends on how poorly it has been maintained over the years and how thoroughly you want to restore it.
Just because a boat is old, doesn't mean it is in bad condition. Some people look after these boats and keep them maintained and in good nick.
