1992 BERTRAM 1992 BERTRAM 60 CONVERTIBLE

Reel Thrill is a 1992 Bertram 60 Convertible - one of the most respected sport fishing platforms ever built - and she's available now in Auckland, priced at NZD $349,000. Bertram drew her elegant lines from a stretched and refined Bertram 54 hull, blending serious offshore performance with genuine onboard luxury. Twin Detroit 16V92 diesels delivering 1,400hp provide an economical cruise of 9 knots at just 60L/hour, stretching up to 20 knots at 363L/hour, with a reported top speed exceeding 30 knots - ideal for being first out of Mercury Bay at the next Kubota Billfish Classic. Below decks, three staterooms and three full heads accompany a large U-shaped galley and wide-open salon. The cockpit offers over 140 square feet of working space, complete with a tackle centre, livewell, flush transom with gate, and an enormous in-deck fish and storage box. The hardtop bridge features a wraparound helm console with forward lounge seating, while the tuna tower provides a commanding view with full wheel and engine controls. Engine controls are also accessible from the cockpit, keeping the crew right beside the action. Booked for a late November haul-out for antifoul and Propspeed treatment, she'll be primed and ready for the 2025-26 season. Contact Ian Duncan to arrange a viewing.
