OK ... so the new "over-sized" rudders are in hand.
How big of a deal/job is it for the install ? .....a couple of hours and not a couple of days, true ?
Marina is doing it, not me.
thanks

Bertramp

House and fleet did well.
My neighbor that was staying at the house because we have impact windows went back to his house at 6:30 and said boats were barely moving.
Hope the folks north do well !!

Bertramp

Bertram & Strike tied to dock across the canal and several feet off of my dock.
My dock is direct and easy access to ICW, but once off the ICW is a left turn then a right turn, creating a little "hurricane hole", with houses on all sides.
I liked the spot just for that reason....lets hope it pays off.

Bertramp

Can you (or somebody on your behalf) access the boat?!... If so, make sure the batteries are fully charged, make sure cockpit drains aren't clogged and double up the lines...[/url]...[/quote] I have my next door neighbor and my mechanic both keeping an eye for me. We are going to tie off across the ...

My wife picked up my new "oversized rudders" from W. Palm Beach last Saturday morning.
Lets hope I have boat to install them on by this Saturday morning !!
Not at all pleased .......

Bertramp

BIG GRIN ..... NICE !!

Bertramp

OK .... now that "wise-guy hat" is off ..... BOAT LOOKS GREAT !!!

Bertramp

nope ... none of it looks to be working.
eliminate the headache ... please forward a signed title for the boat and camera !! :-)

I stopped at the new Bertram office on 17th street yesterday (wearing one of our shirts-of course) ... they said that they would be at Annapolis and Lauderdale.
Office is small but gorgeous, across from Bennetti and a few doors from Bimini Boatyard restaurant......

35 was supposed to be in Sag Harbor this weekend, but they cancelled.

Bertramp

Are you sure the tank is compromised? I am getting a white powder (believed to be aluminum oxide) that is forming on the fuel filter of the carburetor. Arguably, having the boat north (less humidity) and using it only 6 months, with a fresh filter start of season and a replace half way through, I m...

Bertramp

My mechanic buddy's son ...also a mechanic, recommended bringing the diesel boat north due to the ethanol gas up north.
So, Raybo...what do you recommend, aside from a re-power to diesel

Bertramp

A plastic would be great....thanks

Bertramp

I have gas engines. My aluminum tank is producing a white powder on the carburetor filter. I'm going to switch to 2 micron, but ultimately, I'm thinking that it might be tank time. Hightide no longer has fiberglass ethanol OK tanks, their supplier is no more. They are offering a aluminum tank, but i...

Bertramp

in NYC ... I always liked the CIRCLELINER boat ride around Manhattan on a nice day.

Bertramp

Funny (or not) that you mention your tank.
I have gassers and an aluminum tank...and Im getting the white dust in my carburetor fuel filter.
HighTide is no longer making glass tanks.

Bertramp

Bruce .... PM sent.
thanks

Hi Guys .... Well, after all that I have heard about the benefits of .....and after losing an engine and having to be towed, because I couldn't run straight, I have decided to look into "over-sized rudders". Sadly, Patrick is not here to get them for me. Do we still have the contact with the manufac...

Left Sag Harbor this AM, was in Montauk yesterday. Sitting in Mineola (mid-island/central Nassau), you would never know that it's ROCKIN' out east !! White-caps inside of Cedar Point, not a boat on the water in Gardiner's Bay yesterday and only surfers out in the ocean (the real surfers, not the fol...

Bertramp

NICE !!

I don't think a new plug was ever made.
Bob found someone to make the half hulls, perhaps more can be made

Very Nice .... hope it's at the Lauderdale show

When will you bring the Bahia back to the Northeast? You going to trailer her or run her up?

Mark

Trailer.....when boats start heading south in a month or two, there will be lots of inexpensive trailers returning north.

Bertramp

I think I did well because of 2 factors: Strike is not a common boat like a Regulator, Contender or Intrepid ..... it's funny towboat guy asked if I was new to boating and then said "bad question, you don't just stumble into a boat like that when you are new to boating" Everyone wants outboard go fa...

Hey ... it freakin' works !!
This is the new "Florida Baby" !!

Bertramp

Well ... I tried the photobucket thang :-(

Bertramp

My condolences and prayers to the Captains family.
A sad day indeed.

Bertramp

So, the plot thickened, but we will not be traveling to South Padre, at least not boat shopping. My reason for looking was to get an outboard boat for Florida. From my experience, the moisture of down here is easier on outboards and diesels (may also be that I used boat more when I lived here) Was i...

I've always had an eye out for a 25 center console / outboard conversion

Hi Patrick... Steve "Bertramp" Kelly here. I'm not really sure why I decided to put my thoughts to print as...

Bertramp

I think that was the one !! ...... is that you ?

Bertramp

Mid 20s center console, just kind of rare.

And as for the garage freezer, it has been
replaced, the deal is that any and all
bait placed in the freezer will be in
Tupperware.

....and "Tony" & "Nav" ....... thanks SOOO much for your concern for my well being :-)

A very sad day my friend.
I thank you for welcoming me to a place that feels like home and introducing

very nice !!

Bertramp

yeah ... thay thing is towed behind some rich dude's big boat .... that's just his "fish-toy"
I just looked again .... 3-300HP outboards ...... thay thing has got to FLY !!

Bertramp

Losing the engine boxes really opens it up .... a center console with a cuddy cabin !!
But I'm old school and believe that if you need more than 2 outboards, it should have inboards.
I would think that a pair of the 350HP outboards would push it nicely

Bertramp

Hi there ... I'm an insurance "bean-counter" when not out playing boat. The term that you want to use with the insurance company is "indemnification"...... in the event of a loss, you want to be made whole. If it were a house and you built it yourself, would you be happy with just a pile of lumber, ...

Any recommendations for a new charger ?

A while back, I used an Azek (popular in north east) alternative that's is popular in the south-east. I have another area to do and for life of me can't remember the name of the southern alternative.
