I saw a 24 Topaz that they re-did and it was a beauty !!
I like that Stuart/Port Salerno area .....and Rupp is right down the street.

Bertramp

I'm still always blown away when I think of Ray hunt designing the 31 Bertram and the 13 Whaler .......... that's like one step short of inventing fire and the wheel !!

Dug, Somewhere on the North Shore, I haven't rented a place yet, more than likely Salem, I do have a line on an apartment opening April 1. Trying to sell my house here in Stuart before I commit.

I saw a newcast that had a guy claiming to have been a castatway for the past 13 months. Maybe naive ..... and I'm far from a lightweight, but his face is fatter than mine !! Anxious to see how this unfolds or learn some survival skills from him, because in 13 months as a castaway, I would have drop...

Good actor, may he rest in peace ..... but with all due respect, when you find someone with a needle still in his arm and empty bags of herroin, you can make a pretty decent guess as to cause of death.........that's like, "we found him with an axe burried in his head and are trying to determine what...

Pete .... my Bahia has a head with sink and door on the starboard side. My first 31 was a Flybridge cruiser (actually, it was at a Montaul Yacht Club rendevouz years ago with the new owner ... named Captivator) After a cold and rainy Columbus weekend in Connecticut, I realized that I needed a family...

They say he's a smart guy and graduated Stanford with great grades. but he is a poor representative of his school and his superbowl winning team.

Carl .... nice boat
In all of this chatter .... if ya don't want to climb a ladder or steps ......repeat after me

Bertramp

I wanted to Denver win .... loud mouth from Seattle turned me off ..... correction, I wanted to see Dallas win, but it was a sure bet that they would not be the winner today !!

Bertramp

whoa .. no lower station !! ....and is that a transome door ??

Bertramp

Please send a pm with your address.

Craig ... I have a spare set of shafts at my house that came off of a FBC that was doing a diesel re-power if you would like to do a comparison.
Where are you having it hauled ?

I am picking it up in Davie

Speaking for Tommy ...... There was a Soundings article a few years back about "Bertram 31 - best boat ever built" (I have a copy still - that now seems to have disappeared).
The boat is on the cover.

Bertramp

Thank you Sir !!

Bertramp

I've been fighting for weeks to find AZEK sheets in the ft Lauderdale area ..... fighting unsuccessfully.
A supplier has a product called "Versatex" ...says it's coke vs pepsi ...
anyone familiar with this stuff for cockpit side panels ?
Thanks

Bertramp

South side of shelter island to the south fork is only about 200 yards .... I could easily see that freezing.
Parts of Sag Harbor are frozen now.

bob lico wrote:Pete I thank you for the information. I never saw or heard of this model.the boat seems abandon and stuck in the ice.

Bob .... Where is it located ?

Bertramp

who do you fly for ? I work full time in NY now ..... it beats being unemployed in FL, which is what left my 31 neglected and ultimately sent me back to NY. 31 is getting new hydraulic sterring this week and then the deck can be painted.....it's coming along. wrestlng with suppliers in FL to get AZE...

Bertramp

i was in NY for the weekend .... was it any good ?

Bertramp

please send me too.

Bertramp

Gert ....
If you can get to Long Island from Europe, I think one of us Long Island boys, by land or sea, will make sure that you get to Greenport .... one way or another.

Bertramp

If coming from Jersey, you might also consider NY Harbor to East River to LI Sound and around Orient Point.....with that you can do a halfway stop in Huntington or Port Jeferson if you want.

Bertramp

Keith ... sorry for your loss.

Bertramp

Steve- Had a flight out the night of the 3rd on southwest out of orlando.....on time, on time, on time...cancelled. Did not get out of Florida until Tuesday......thats one long delay. Florida being cold is a heck of a lot better than new england and cold. Same situation, same night, but in Lauderda...

Bertramp

I know owner of Montauk Marine Basin, he is current broker for Walter's boat.
He has given gift certificate for several NE Rendevouz.
That location (as in anywhere in Montauk) does not offer the easy town access such as what Greenport offers.
I can run the idea by him if we have an interest.

Bertramp

From what they are saying, flights are being cancelled in the midwest due to the air being too cold for the planes to fly. So every thing is going to be screwed up for a few days. Drive safely Steve. Tony ... thanks I didn't drive, I was driven ..... Greyhound !! Got home yesterday after a 30 hr or...

Bertramp

So, southwest finally cancels my 5:30 flight at 11:30. Next flight i can get on is wednesday. Ive been out of the office two weeks, so.....im on I95 in georgia.....not too happy
Now in northern maryland with freezing rain.

Bertramp

Im in Lauderdale airport for six hrs trying to get to NY, they didnt realize that the late plane would need a crew!!

Bertramp

Whaler.... If it makes you feel better, I'm stuck in lauderdale airport trying to get to Islip. 60s today and folks were talking about cold.

Bertramp

Happy, Healthy and Safe New Year guys !!

I have my cockpit side panels off and they are 3/8 thickness for the sides (note that I have a Bahia, so I have two sets of side panels - approx. 10' forward and 8' aft) and the 8' transom piece is 1/2" thickness. I plan on getting some AZEK tomorrow, several buddies in construction have mentioned i...

Bertramp

Steve ... I know what you are saying about how old Florida houses were built.
My place was built around '62 and I have terrazzo and a concrete roof.
Like a bunker !!

It would be real good for Bluebeard to go to a good home.

Bertramp

He was hilarious .... and it's still funny now .... I hope that doesn't say that I drink too much

Bertramp

Thanks for the Holiday wishes ..... was that a fireplace in the background in the first shot ?

Bertramp

Bob, there is still a color difference to where your chair was mounted.
Can the Awlgrip primer and paint be rolled on the other epoxy sealed coosa and on the Lico Glasstech ?

Bertramp

Gonna start paintwork on deck next week.
Deck is Gasstech aft (Lico version) and Coosa forward.
What is recommended paint ??
I've never worked with the Awlgrips or Imrons ....
I have had good results from Interlux Perfection
or is there a good "deckpaint" that is tough and easy to use ?
Thanks

I was looking at a boat in Stuart FL that was on land.
Decided to climb underneath and lie on my back to check the hull.....well, the fireants climbed underneath me !!
HAHAAA .... they are no F_ing joke !!

Happy B-day !!

Bertramp

I don't hunt, but it sounds like a horse !! :-D

Not a bad idea....

Bertramp

Im familiar with The Anchorage and Dyer boats....I gotta believe that they could do a good job. However, I would opt for one of our guys, even if production is only a few per month. As much as I would like one, its not a cant live without. The decision is in the hands of the group. The mold is on LI.

Bertramp

thanks guys ....
Seems like the old seats were Pompanette and Arrigoni can make up a new tackle center. I knew of them, but for the life of me could not remember the name.

Bertramp

My decks and supports are finally getting re-juvenated. The companion seat (port side) is a metal bracket, "inverted L" shaped off of the wall, supported by the floor with cushions for seat and back. The helm seat (in others that I have seen) has either been a double version of what I just described...

Bertramp

A safe and happy Thanksgiving and Chanukah.......feel free to celebrate either or both as to whatever fits yah, but clearly ... if you can read this you have much to be thankful for.
And a special thanks to those out doing the dirty work away from their families and keeping us safe.
All the best !!

Bertramp

The few...the proud...the Bahia owners !!
Congrats !!
put your hull # in signature

Bertramp

ummm ... actually, it may be in Sag, in which case it is available over the weekend.
Who can make them ??
