1985 Bertram 54

New to market: Bertram 54 1985 / Refit in 2010

Introducing "TRUE COUP," a Bertram 54 1989, an American tried-and-true sport fisher built to handle the roughest seas. The 54’ Bertram is known for its rugged sea-keeping ability and has been a favorite of many fishermen over the years. This vessel has been owned, cared for, and upgraded by the same owner for over 26 years and had one owner prior. Contact us today to schedule a personal viewing.

Built on a solid fiberglass deep-V hull, she features three staterooms.

She is powered by Detroit 800hp 12V71 diesel and cruises at 24–25 knots.

The port engine was rebuilt in 2020 and has 100 hours; a 15 KW Westerbeke generator replaced the 2 older Onan generators. New fiberglass hardtops help protect her from the elements.

This vessel has been constantly upgraded, and valuable custom improvements to the original design have been made:
