Funny !!! ..... "local knowledge", just like they say for the inlets :-)

Bertramp

I've always thought that "38 Specials" were pretty sexy !!
But you'll find something

Bertramp

Congrats on the sale !!
Hope the next knee serve you well.

Bertramp

East river can be funky with debris, but pretty.
Once into Long Island Sound, it is easy and Port Washington is a good stop point, as is Huntington.
The best scenario is to arrive one way and depart the other.

Bertramp

I agree with Dug ... the big bucks center consoles are what folks are buying and putting 2 or 3 big outboards on the back. Blast out, fish, blast back.

Bertramp

There's a spot called Billy's By the Bay in Greenport ... (in one of the other marinas, the chain, can't think of name) ...food is good. He could probably do a clambake kinda thing. I will ask him over the weekend if he does catering and try to get some rates.

Hey Brew
All the best.
As you know, I aint far away and at this time of year am back and forth past Hampton Bays on a regular basis.
Give a hollar if I can help.

Bertramp

"I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member !" .... Groucho Marx ?

Bertramp

So my thought of a circumnavigation by backstroke is a bad idea ??

Bertramp

No offense taken,I was just the guy close to the mold in Lauderdale.
I will gladly contact and try to get ball rolling.

Bertramp

Bob ... please give name and contact info for the guy on the Island that can do them.
I have the mold here on LI and will gladly contact him, let him check out the mold and we can go from there.

Bertramp

I think someone was looking for one of these a few weeks back.
I have no affiliation.

Bertramp

Dug ...
Do you still have the swim platform ?

Bertramp

sorry ... just focussed the eyes and saw the before ... nice job !!

Bertramp

Very nice.... What year ? Do you hsve "before" pics?

Bertramp

18 outrage is a great boat. .... See whalers post ...... And if he doesnt have a trailer, i am willing to loan mine, as long as it gets back here to NY. It brought my 21 commercial north and doesnt go in the water.

Bertramp

Craig. ....
Look locally, the gov authorities auction commercial grade whalers once they come out of warrantee.
I have a retired Florida FWC whaler in NY.
Nothing in smaller boats is safer or holds value like a whaler.
Mr Hunt was a genius !!

Bertramp

I'm barely at the helm of my life, let alone the rendevouz, but i can offer an address in a pm and if i am not prompt on attendance will lean on brother Lico.

Bertramp

Just for info sake .... is a 37 a shrunken version of the 54 hull ?

Bertramp

the guys got serious skills !! ..... looks great

Bertramp

Harry....glad to hear that engines are running. Hang in there buddy.

Bertramp

Close to me too, but I'll be in Lauderdale.
Keep us informed

Bertramp

Doing a re-look on January Sportfishing magazine ... I saw an ad for a boat called the "Brightside-Nassau 3204".
Check the website ... somewhere I have seen this boat before !!

Bertramp

Whaler ... when I'm not "playing boat", I'm an accountant in the insurance industry. Do you have an insurance contact that you specifically wish to use ? I requested an application from our "agency management VP" and can complete to check on pricing. Not looking to step on toes ... if you have someo...

Bertramp

So now your fastball is only in the high 80s ? :-D .... feel better buddy !!

Bertramp

I know that I can get a raffle item related to Montauk Marine Basin.
Anyone wanna do shirts ? .... raffle items are easier to gather with the free advertising on T-shirts.

Bertramp

happy holiday !!

Bertramp

I remember a discussion on the insurance
last year.
Did we wind up having to insure last year ?
Is the tent the trigger for the liability insurance?

Bertramp

20 kts at 2,800 RPM....a very light bahia mar with approx 60 gals of fuel.
Crusader 454s
It will plane on one engine.
Not sure of prop size until I haul for bottom paint.

Bertramp

Cam was replaced and the engine is now running well. I did look into Daddy-O and I too heard good things

Bertramp

This boat looks like Bahia Moon .... Neil ??

Bertramp

Are you having a custom window fabricated ... Or ?

Bertramp

Well...that "funny" noise said it all !!
Anyone familiar with "Daddy-O's" in Pompano for a 454 longblock ?
Thanks

Patrick was given first shot and declined. If he chooses to reconsider, In my mind, he would be the guy for the task.

Bertramp

I will be in Sag either this weekend or next and in Lauderdale the last weekend in March.
I can bring it south with me if Buju is o get it, I just need to know group decision in advance.
They DO give me a funny look in the airport, similar to when I brought a fender on the plane :-D

Bertramp

The mold is presently residing in Sag Harbor and is available to anyone that can make it happen.
Just let me know.

Bertramp

Yeah.... Im mush for stuff like that.
9/11 taught me how to cry, been this way since then......
Still not sure if Im now broken or fixed .

Bertramp

Hilarious !!

Bertramp

You can catch fish and still see the beach, which is why you can get away with a gas boat in that area.

Bertramp

Boat looks like "Mr Toad" out of Pompano.

Bertramp

Paul: Any update as to your panels project, or do you just have the material in hand now ready and waiting to install? Preston ... Not sure if you were referring to me "Steve (Bertramp)" ... the panels are in the hands of the carpenter that did my deck supports and new forward deck. Steering is bei...

This 11 doesn't look bad.....9s are pretty tough to find.

Bertramp

It's funny how many Bertram fans are Whaler fans and do or have owned Whalers.....that should tell you something. I had TON of fun when I had a 13 .... I would run it from Sag Harbor to Greenport in the mornings when it was flat, just to get a cup of 7-11 coffee. I went up in size only because after...

Bertramp

That's a nice 18 .... they are noticelably more boat than a 17

Bertramp

so sounds like a Boston Whaler is a very valid way to go and an 18 seems to meet all my requirements , but whats the difference between a 18 and a 19 outrage ,? hulls look different< but what else, forgive me but we just don't have them down here ,I am keen to get one ,just which one??? Whats an Ou...

Whaler ...
At different points, I've owned:
2 - 13s
3 - 15s
2 - 17s
and presently have a commercial 21.

I really like the 18 Outrage ... easy to trailer, better in a chop than a 17 and all Whalers hold value well.

Bertramp

just sent a 2013 ..... sorry
..... and a 2014 will follow a little later

Bertramp

Pete .....
I/We moved to Lauderdale because my wife and I were both working there.
I got laid off, she still works there, so we are kinda locked to Lauderdale, plus we bought a house with plenty of dock space and living space that we are pretty happy with.
So, we have a commuting marriage.
