Chris,

My current motors are one Right Hand and one Left Hand rotation.


What are yours?

Chris, Those are the same motors I'm considering from Michigan Motors. I'm in salt water so I would be getting the fresh water cooling option. Would your current transmission, shafts and props work with the new motors or doing you have to change everything out also? I have the Borg Warner 1:56 trans...

Chris,

I just acquired a 1984 B26 Sport Convertible with 165 HP original motors 435 hours or so. What should I expect to watch out for in this boat model?
Not to much info on it out there. Why? Not popular, How many are made? Etc. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Mike

Hello All, Great site and happy to see all the knowledge. I'm sure I can learn a lot about Bertram! I have a 1984 Bertram 26 Sport Convertible.
