Bertram made some 31s with a stock blue hull (as in "Bluebeard").
Was this a special option ?
I have only seen it in the FBCs, was it done on other models too ?

They also offered the 20' moppie with a blue hull. I think it was also available in red, but can't swear to that.

The 25 came that way too - Trey's is that color, so is mine.

my 63 is/was blue. The original color is the lighter of the two in this shot. This is an older picture...now the boat is green...currency green from all the dead presidents that I have used on it over the last few years! ha!

Apparently they were doing blues in 20/25/31 ... I don't think 28s. Based upon vintage, maybe some 38s.
I've never seen a blue 31 Bahia.

Bluebeard is a Sportsfisherman and came in that color. The good news is that it is very recognizable on the water. The bad news is that it is very recognizable on the water.

There is a blue FBC on land at the north side of the Shinnecock canal, it was there at the last Greenport rendevouz and some of us noticed it ... it's still there now, but I've never seen a Bahia in blue.
