A Day on the Water

All aboard the The Bertram 50 Express

Our Editor-in-Chief Steve Davis got out on the new Bertram 50 Express and found a boat that can cruise the coast or be setup for fishing. “The boat is the perfect size for an owner/operator, couple, or small family with a master cabin and ensuite head forward and a guest cabin with bunk beds and a day head to port,” he says.

The galley is efficient with room to move opposite a U-shaped lounge and dinette. What’s nice is the yacht offers a civilized ride whether cruising the coast or heading offshore. Fishermen will love the optional tower and the large aft cockpit with mezzanine seating. Either way, the standard 1,150-hp Caterpillar C18 engines will get you where you need to go with a comfortable cruise speed of 36 mph and the joystick control makes docking a breeze.
