Description:
The Bertram 46′ Convertible is an American “fisherman” in its most classical concept, designed primarily for the specific use in fishing trips. This shows immediately from the uncommonly designed cockpit: and particularly from the freeboard, which is always very restrained over the surface, a fact that makes catching and hauling the fish on board a lot more easier; and, furthermore, from the accuracy with which all possible hindrance that might hamper the fight have been carefully avoided. Therefore the Bertram 46′ Convertible features an aft deck which is not structural but can be added to the owner’s desire for a less specific use of the craft.
Characteristic of the layout of this version of the Convertible Bertram is also the steering position, invariably positioned on the flying bridge, which enables the helmsman a better steering precision in navigation, and better control of the boat during manoeuvres. This feature is particularly important during the fishing action, as it gives the helmsman the immediate perception of the development of the fight, i.e. if the prey is getting closer or further from the boat, so that he can steer the boat accordingly. As for the interiors, the Bertram 46′ Convertible is designed for efficiency, strength, and the maximum ease in living accommodation in every part of the craft.
On board, a lot of emphasis is placed on communal space, especially the saloon, the dining area and the galley, so that the day-time activity on the boat is enhanced. Nevertheless, the two sleeping cabins are spacious, soberly and very rationally styled and equipped with all comforts, air conditioning included. We particularly appreciated the owner’s stateroom, which includes en-suite heads, a central double berth underneath which a very spacious locker is located. This is readily and easily accessible, as the double berth can be lifted hydraulically.
For these reasons, and in spite of the highly specialised fishing approach, this craft cannot be classified just as a “fisherman” boat. The 46′ Convertible is a true motor yacht, comfortable, safe, sound, versatile and with excellent navigating qualities. It has a very large hull, with good displacement; the bow is designed to be high on the water, as appropriate to a fishing boat; and it is not sensitive to wind blows, due to the modest deck structures. The modified “V” hull, narrow at the bow and definitely broader at the stern, enables the yacht to reach high speed even in formed seas, with maximum performance more than adequate to guarantee fast passages. Even at lower speeds, performance during the fishing action is excellent, providing no pitching or rolling and excellent manoeuvrability.
