Charlie,
Looks good, like the colors.

But everytime you post, it reminds me of the few nights I spent as a guest of your town.

Change your location to say Hammonton. I have much fonder memories of that place :-)

Charlie - a real knockout...just amazing how a 50 year old boat design just still looks beeter than almost anything else ever built.....

no, PLAYPEN is in somers point nj, harbour cove north D19 if any of the bethren is ever in the area,she came out great thanks to the input of alot of you on this site and it is really appreciated, from the repower 4 years ago til now, it certainly is a sweet package. amazing all the comments where ever she goes, there is a true love affair out there with the 31 BERTRAM, even a blowboater went out of his way this past sunday to compliment me on it!
anyway thanks to all of you for your input,the color combo is from the 55 viking CHRISTI that belonged to Tony Farraco(christi insurance)that viking was kind enough to research and give me paint codes, capt pat had numerous phone calls especially for the windows and rub rail and all the credit goes to my good friend tim and linda silvio from down jersey marine in greenwich nj(they measure 42 times-cut once)but what great final results.......thanks again really appreciated

Charlie,
I was doing a survey here in Florida yesterday and the broker Andy Eget & his client Jimmy Davidson were commenting about a 31 Bertram in New Jersey that had an unusual color scheme. I said you must be talking about Charlie's boat the yellow and red one, they almost fell of the boat, they wanted to know how I saw the picture and I told them about the board. Turns out that Jimmy has a 54 Bertram, it's a small world and it's seems to be getting smaller everyday. Nice lookng boat Charlie, congradulations. They got my name from Tommy Oaks, who worked at Henely Marine when he was living down here awhile ago. Henley Marine had the co brokerage on a 38' Sterling and I have done quite a bit of work with them over the years. Anyway this sand box has been a great way to meet some of the nicest people.
Pete

You will probably be the smallest boat fishing that tournement. Hope you take it all. The big guys would all die if a 31 took it.

Good Luck
