Bertram Yachts - Bertram 630 Convertible

Bertram Yachts - Bertram 630 Convertible
Bertram Yachts - Bertram 630 Convertible
Bertram Yachts - The 630 was conceived by Norberto Ferretti, the driving force behind the Ferretti Group as well as its chairman and president, who acquired Bertram in 1998. His directive to the Bertram design team was to take the 60, a seasoned blue water battle wagon, and build a larger, faster tournament boat, a boat that, together with the other Bertram convertibles, would create an impressive sportfishing lineup and make the builder even more of a force to be reckoned with on the tourney circuit.

Ferretti wanted outstanding performance, horizon-chasing range, and top-drawer accommodations, but first he had his team look at why the 60 was such an excellent sea boat. “We designed this boat to possess exceptional sea keeping capabilities, as supplied by [the 60’s] long, constant-deadrise running surface, sharp entry, and deep forefoot,” said Mullian. He added that her generous volume forward helps make the 63 handle well in all sea conditions: head, following, and quartering. “By using all that buoyancy forward, the bow pops up and keeps the boat from falling off to either side.”

Ferretti also wanted speed, and as reducing drag is one of the most important factors in getting something to go faster, the designers gave the 630’s running bottom a 14.5-degree deadrise aft as compared to the 17.5 degrees found on the 60. In addition she has a pair of shallow, seven-foot-long prop pockets that lower draft and flatten out the shaft angle, reducing appendage drag. She also features the same sharp, deep-V entry; big, wide chines; and keel as the 60.

Ferretti also had the Bertram team look at improving construction. The bottom is still solid below the waterline, with Klegecell-cored hull sides, deck, and superstructure. But instead of a conventional stringer system, which is molded, then pumped full of foam and secondarily bonded to the hull, Bertram uses a giant casting sculpted out of high-density, 14-pound foam blocks that are encapsulated and laminated to the hull using longitudinals measuring about eight inches wide. In addition, the thwart members that continue up the hull sides to within ten inches of the sheerline are spaced closer together than on the 60, leaving fewer unsupported areas.

The same kind of thought that went into increasing speed and strength was also given to interior comfort. The 630 is offered with a standard three- or optional four-stateroom layout. To provide more room, Bertram designers increased the beam above the waterline at about amidships; traditionally Bertrams have beams that are continuous from amidships to the transom. “On the 630 we kind of ‘pooched’ it out at the center to give the boat a little more room, gunwale to gunwale, in the center of the boat,” Mullian explained.

That’s why the roominess was so noticeable in all three quarters aboard my 630, whether I was in the forepeak, amidships master, or starboard twin-berth quarters. I also noted lots of stowage spaces. There were two full-length cedar closets, two cabinets, and a pair of drawers in the forepeak’s centerline queen berth. I found a three-drawer, two cabinet credenza along with a pair of cedar closets, two night tables, and a free-standing cabinet for the entertainment center in the master. And the twin-berth quarters had a full-size closet and ample drawer space.

There are other places aboard the 630 where roominess is evident. One is the bridge, where the expansive helm offers the skipper a vast array of electronics that disappear into the console at the push of a button. Forward of the helm there’s also a seating area for about eight, with stowage below.

Another place is in the Awlgripped engine room, which is accessed via a door in the forward part of the cockpit. I found six feet of headroom there, with acres of room around and between the mains to do all the necessary maintenance work without fear of any knuckle-busting. The saloon, galley, and dinette are also spacious and feature, respectively, comfortable seating areas, large Corian countertops, and all the latest appliances, as well as four large above-counter cabinets, four drawer-style Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer units, and a dining area that seats six.

So, did the 630 and I manage to catch anything? Well, about an hour into it, we had our first knockdown. As Brown was re-baiting the port line, he and I looked up and saw one of the other rod tips bend. “Well Ken, are you going to take that fish or not?” Before I knew it, he and Lambert had cleared all the other rods and this fish and I were, well, connected.

Twenty minutes later, after several jumps and three runs that stripped off as much line as I had reeled in, Mullian put the boat in reverse and maneuvered her beautifully as I finally brought the fish to starboard. “Fifty-pound sail, at least,” said Brown. “Okay?” he asked as he held the leader. “Do it,” I answered, and with that he clipped the leader and the fish slipped back down into the water and, with a flick of its tail, was gone.

We didn’t see any more fish that afternoon, but that didn’t matter to me. Not only did I have a nice sail under my belt, but I thoroughly enjoyed my time on the Bertram 630. Combining superior engineering with luxurious accommodations, the Bertram design team has made Norberto Ferretti’s mandates a reality, resulting in a boat that’ll be just as comfortable island-hopping as she will be fishing the canyons.

Bertram Yachts - Bertram 570 Convertible

Source: Boatpoint Magazine
Bertram Yachts - Bertram 570 Convertible
Bertram Yachts - Bertram 570 Convertible
American-made Bertram boats are back in Australia in a big way, starting with a Bertram 570 Convertible, the first of nine models expected to hit our shores by the end of 2006

One of the most exciting announcements made at the Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show in May was that Western Australian-based Eagle Yachts has secured exclusive dealership rights to sell the Bertram brand Australia-wide.

Eagle Yachts are not mucking around either. The company has already placed $17 million worth of orders which will result in five new Bertram models, including two of the flagship 670s, being delivered Down Under by the end of this year.

To ensure there is no confusion, it should be pointed out that Bertram has no association with the Australian-built Caribbean brand which is often referred to as Bertram boats in Australia. The true Bertram brand is based in Miami, Florida and is now owned by Italian boatbuilding giant, the Ferretti Group.

Eagle Yachts has dealerships in Perth, Sydney and the Gold Coast, and Chairman Peter Sarich expects to have taken delivery of the full Bertram line-up from the all-new 360 Express to the 670 Convertible by October 2006.

BIG AND FAST
The Bertram on display at the Sanctuary Cove Boat Show, and the subject of this review, was the 570 Convertible. With an LOA of 18.46m, beam of 5.1m and loaded displacement of more than 34 tonne, this boat is no toy. Add to this twin Cat C30 diesels at 1550hp a side and what you’ve got is a boat that turns heads wherever it goes.

The Bertram 570 is pretty typical of today’s US-built convertibles: big and fast! While for many boaties, fuel economy and reliability are probably higher up the list than top speed, there is nothing better than going fast – and going fast in a big boat takes the feeling of exhilaration to a whole new level.

I’ve been in very few boats that can cruise at 30kt off Australia’s east coast but during my short stint behind the wheel of the Bertram 570, I was extremely impressed with how soft and how dry the ride was. There is no substitute for weight and waterline length when it comes to ride, and the Bertram 570 is a good case in point.

With the boat full of fuel and water we reached a top speed of 36kt offshore and the boat would have been more than happy to go faster. At this speed you expect to start hearing bangs and rattles as you come off the backs of waves but there were no bone-jarring landings on the test day. The boat had a very level attitude and there was no need to play with the trim tabs. For a big boat it jumped on to the plane extremely quickly and you know you’ve got some horsepower underneath you when you get pushed back into the seat as the turbos kick in.

The boat was a little sluggish around the corner, and took on a considerable amount of water in the cockpit. To its credit, the scupper system worked very well with water expelled as quickly as it entered, although the coaming gate above the transom door needs a locking device because we managed to lift it with water pressure from a wave.

Pushing 34kt, with a big deep vee, this boat is not going to spin like a pocket sportsfisher with a flat aft section, but you buy a 57-footer for its ride in forward not its agility in reverse.

MODERN AND STYLISH LAYOUT
The cockpit on the 570 is huge (147sqft according to Bertram’s specifications). The cockpit coamings are heavily padded and the freeboard is high enough to ensure safety.

The saloon door is offset to starboard to fit the flybridge ladder and access to the engine room between the amidships area and the port bulkhead at the forward end of the cockpit.

A sink and tackle station features fresh and saltwater faucets and a small cutting board. Steps in the forward cockpit corners provide access to the sidedecks which are nice and wide and provide hassle-free access to the bow.

I was surprised to see a smooth gelcoat finish on the covering boards around the cockpit: a bit of water on these and they will turn into a slippery slide. A continuation of the non-skid located on the sidedecks would be a smart move. Or better still, and although it requires a lot more maintenance, I think I would opt for teak deck and covering boards.

The engine-room access door could do with a latch of some sort to hold it open if you have to pop down for a quick check. Access to the engine room from the cockpit was quite good and once inside I had full headroom when standing between the engines. Although there’s not a heck of a lot of room to get around the engines, particularly outboard, the general layout and finish of the 570′s engine room is first class. Separating pumps and ancillary systems such as the generator and desalinator from the engine room proper to an aft compartment is a smart move although you’re on your hands and knees while working in this area.

As you access the saloon from the cockpit you are greeted by a modern and stylish layout which incorporates high-gloss cherrywood timberwork, granite-look Corian benchtops and luxurious leather upholstery.

A six-seater lounge on the portside provides views of the big Sharp flatscreen TV complete with Bose surround sound system. Cabinets along the starboard side of the saloon house a liquor cabinet, icemaker and circuit breaker panels. A floating coffee table, albeit a heavy one, is testament to the boat’s consistent attitude at sea. Big side windows offer plenty of natural light to the saloon while timber Venetian blinds ensure privacy if required.

At the forward end of the saloon you’ll find a six-seater dinette to starboard and a good-sized galley to port. The 570 is available in two different galley configurations. The test boat features a full-size side-by-side refrigerator which personally I’m not a big fan of on boats. The floor to ceiling cabinet that houses the fridge is quite obtrusive and restricts communication between the chef and those lounging around the saloon. The second layout option, with a standard U-shaped galley and underbench refrigeration unit, would be my choice for sure.

Other galley features include a microwave oven, dishwasher drawer, heaps of storage with clever slide-out shelving and a four-burner cooktop which has a sliding Corian cover to form additional benchspace when the cooktop is not in use. A rod locker is also concealed in the ceiling above the galley.

From the galley it’s five steps down to the companionway and the first cabin you come across is the crew or second guest cabin which is located on the starboard side. This cabin featured two generous side-by-side single bunks with side table in between, storage space for clothes, ample lighting and even a flatscreen TV with DVD/MP3 player.

Immediately forward of the crew cabin is the first of three heads. This one can be used as an ensuite to the crew cabin or alternately as a dayhead via another door in the companionway. All heads are similarly finished with high-gloss cherrywood, Corian benchtops, Tecma toilets, mirrored ceilings, Amtico flooring and spacious shower stalls.

The master stateroom is located amidships on the portside. This is a very spacious cabin with ample room to move around the queen-size bed. A mirrored aft bulkhead accentuates the spaciousness and storage is everywhere thanks to sideboard cupboards and drawers, bedside tables, hanging lockers and a huge storage area under the bed. The master stateroom features its own ensuite which is similar to the dayhead although the shower stall is larger.

A cabinet in the companionway just forward of the master stateroom conceals a washing machine and dryer.

A third head, located on the starboard side is also accessed from the companionway but would be primarily used by the guests in the forward stateroom. Whoever chose the tacky wallpaper should go back to interior design school.

Standard configuration for the forward stateroom is for a queen-size island berth with hanging lockers on either side, however, the test boat is fitted with two large single bunks in the forward cabin which would be more suited to family use or charterwork. Although you lose one hanging locker in this configuration, there is still ample storage space.

The forward cabin also features a TV with DVD/MP3 as well as an overhead hatch for natural light and ventilation.

Bertram Yachts - 410 Bertram Convertible

Source: Patrick Sciacca, Power & Motoryacht Magazine

Bertram Yachts Revews
Bertram Yachts - 410 Bertram Convertible
When I was a kid, I always heard the name Bertram Yacht mentioned among boaters. The conversation usually involved someone wanting to buy the now-legendary 31-footer or someone else who had just purchased one. That vessel was—and to many diehards still is—the ultimate in solid-fiberglass, deep-V fishing boats. Aside from the dock talk, I remember the picture of Moppie, the first 31 that was used to build the plug for 1,800 or so sisterships to follow, running headlong into the slop to win the 1960 Miami-Nassau race. It’s an image etched into the minds of many boating enthusiasts and one that helped make Bertram an instant icon. That nearly 50-year-old story has been passed down from one generation to another, and today Bertram espouses the same core values that defined the 31: ride, performance, and solid build.

And it was just down the road from the Miami facility that produced this famous boat that the wide-eyed curiosity of my 1970′s childhood met the Bertram of 2007, the 410 Convertible, which is the latest in a fleet of open and convertible sportfishermen that ranges in size from 36 to 67 feet (a 70-footer is on the way).

That unmistakable logo, complete with the wingspread eagle, shone against the bright-white Maxguard gelcoat under South Florida’s summer sun as her Euro-influenced curves (Bertram was purchased by Ferretti Group in 1998) blended with the familiar profile to create an appealing package. Navy blue and gold accent stripes adorned the vessel’s foredeck and cabin sides, defining her cambered, water-repelling foredeck and emphasizing her 14’6″ beam. Yet the 410 is 1’3″ narrower than the Cabo 40 and the Albemarle 410XF and 1’9″ narrower than the Rampage 41.
The 410′s narrower beam hints at a sharp entry and deep forefoot that are designed to slice head seas with ease. (The flat-calm conditions on my test day unfortunately offered me no chance to substantiate this theory.) Her entry broadens to a mid-20-degree deadrise amidships and tapers to 17 degrees at the transom, unlike that 31, which had about 24 degrees of deadrise at the stern. This is consistent with a policy dating from the mid-1970′s, around the time of the 46.6, when Bertram changed from its trademark deep-V, raceboat-inspired bottom to the modified version seen on the 410. Having such a hull bottom meant that the 410 was quick to plane—about six seconds from a standing start—and stable underway at all speeds.

Indeed, when I sat in the optional Release Marine helm chair facing the centerline helm pod and throttled the Cummins’ single-lever electronic controls to the pins, the optional twin 600-hp Cummins QSC8.3-600s (twin 540-hp Cummins are standard) spooled up quickly. This boat is no speed demon, hitting a respectable 35.1 mph at the engines’ rated 3000 rpm, but Bertram says many prospective buyers are coming down in size, looking for a 40-footer with mid-20-knot cruise speed. When I dialed back the motors to a fast cruise of 2750 rpm, the 410 easily made 32 mph with an almost miserly fuel burn: just 52 gph, which works out to a 301-statute-mile range.

The 410 also tracked straight and true, thanks to the successful marriage of hull form and a slight keel. Yet draft is just 4’0″, so shallow-water cruising and/or fishing can be done with ease. She also spins on a dime and backs down with a vengeance thanks to 2.39:1 ZF gears and 25×36.5 five-blade Michigan props set into pockets that provide just the right amount of tip clearance. I ran several fast-moving, backing-down scenarios, and the 410 performed nearly flawlessly each time while offering me an unobstructed view of the 104-square-foot cockpit. On a few of the runs, I noted that the port-side scupper drained more slowly than the starboard one. It appeared something might have been partially blocking it. I also noticed that that the hardtop began to shake at fast cruise after extended periods. I was assured that on future models it would be lower and that it would receive extra cross members for support.

A few other issues arose during my time onboard the 410. The first was in the guest/dayhead, which is accessible from the starboard-side guest stateroom and companionway. If I closed the shower stall door, the companionway door was in the stall. If water gets on a wood-veneer door like this, its life will be short. The space is tight for both a shower and a Tecma MSD, so I’d forego the second shower, or place the shower door on a circular track that closes inward instead of outward to the companionway, or eliminate the second head altogether and use the space for stowage or even a washer/dryer.

I found a more easily remedied issue in the finely appointed, forepeak master, which has a queen berth and cedar-lined hanging lockers. The air-conditioning control panel was mounted within the second step up to the berth, so to change the temperature, you have to bend down or get on your knees. Moving it to eye level on a bulkhead or even in one of the hanging lockers flanking the foot of the berth is a no-brainer. I also noticed that some of the attractive Olivari door handles hit each other when opening and closing doors. I was told doorstops would be installed.

That said, the saloon, dinette, and galley-down are done exquisitely in a satin-finish cherrywood. And when you combine 6’5″ headroom in the saloon, large side windows, and a cockpit-facing window that’s large enough to move those big diesels through, the natural light abounds in here. The area is voluminous enough for everyone to have their own space and close enough so you and your guests can communicate without raising your voice.

After I finished up the test, I took a tour of Bertram’s plant and noticed a common thread. Every boat that was working her way down the line to make-ready and delivery was being tweaked and retweaked to make sure she was spot-on for her owners. Like any Hull No. 1, the 410 needed some fine tuning, too, but from what I saw at the factory and gathered from speaking to Bertram’s staff, the details will be worked out. And if this commitment to excellence and evolution continues, I’m sure someday my son will hear boaters discussing the next Bertram classic coming down the pike. Perhaps it might even be the 410 Convertible? Time will tell.

Bertram has always built its hull bottoms using only single-skin, hand-laid fiberglass. In addition, areas such as the chines and keel are reinforced with layers of unidirectional S-glass. Today encapsulated foam-cored stringers add backbone without adding weight, while the deck, bridge, and hull sides above the waterline are foam-cored and vacuum-bagged to optimize the glass-to-resin ratio and thus enhance rigidity. All external hardware (i.e. cleats, rails, etc.) mounts through laminated-in aluminum backing plates.
