[yardpro]

just wanted to say hi.

I just bought a bertram 28 (yes, i know it'snot a 31.... but i'm working on it)

I live in morehead city..grew up on atlantic beach.

I am replacing gas tank (ethanol disease) and repowering with crate mercruiser 5.7's.

The 31 guys treat everyone well as I am sure you know.
Congrats on the purhcase and best of luck with repower.

Yardpro,

Welcome aboard!

31 or 28, it's a Bertam and you know quality with a taste for classic lines.

Good luck and enjoy your new purchase. Ask any and all questions and this is the place for the best answers..boat related or otherwise.

thanks for the invite for the get together.

I unfortunately have commitments that weekend at the cape with 75 others that do a yearly family campout... we have cookout competitions, a DJ... LOTS of fun...

I Know the williams at Causeway marina. AS a matter of fact i did the landscape installation for them there.. They are a great group of guys. Their Father John C. and my Father were friends.


Always loved the 31... that will be the next step up in a few years.
