Re: 1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
Survey Results! This week, Wednesday and Thursday, I had the boat surveyed. The survey confirmed pretty much everything that I had seen, plus some items that were only noticeable out of the water. I wasn’t there for the Haulout/Launch as I was proving a point to a seller worked in my favor, but I ha...

Re: 1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
Thank you for your comments. I had to push my survey for another week due to one of the technicians being diagnosed with Covid, but I am still highly considering buying it. I have an accept/reject date of October 6th, but I think I will pull the trigger before hand. I am eager to get started and wor...

Re: 1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
Final piece of the mystery is that the props are 20x23 4-blade. I am going to have to wait until this is surveyed in about 2 weeks because I can't seem to see the cause at this moment. The cause of getting up to that speed previous mentioned and similar to @Tommy. I am still planning to purchase the...

Re: 1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
Thank you for the feedback @Tommy. The boat is very similar to yours and we tested with near-like conditions. A few things I need to review as the listing has been off: 1) Confirm the props 2) WOT RPM All indications lead me to believe the engines are healthy, but that there could be a prop issue. I...

Re: 1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
I received the photos of the tags and boat is running 630A1-2.0R, so a 2:1 Ratio. Thoughts?

Re: 1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
Amazing feedback from everyone! Thank you very much. The sea trial I did was preliminary to see if it was worth moving forward at a price point, but the surveys are scheduled for the 17th. This will include the photo tach to get an accurate reading. Per the maintenance records, maintenance performed...

1971 FBC w/ Yanmars
First and foremost, thank you for welcoming me to the board. I have been a longtime follower, but finally joined when I was approaching the ownership side! I am currently on contract for a Bertram 31 that appears to be in very good shape; still pending engine survey next week. Vessel History: PORT E...
