Check with Danny at High Tide Marine. I ordered some from him.

I have a contract on my Bertram; we just need to make a few reparis and have a successful sea trial. We have enjoyed her for 8 years. We now start our new adventure with a 42' Hatteras LRC. We plan on doing some cruising.

Folks I will most likely be selling my Bertram after 8 years of enjoyment. I have not done much in the way of fishing and have decided to get something more suitable to the way we use our boat.
I plan on staying in touch on the board and keeping up with everything going on.

"Why Knot?" would like to wish all a safe and Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

I'm still plugging away! Hope everyone is OK. Currently down at the coast on my 33 watching this storm znd keeping my whaler pumped out we've had a lot of rain and its still coming down.

Welcome to the "Club". I purchased my 82 SF in 2014 and have enjoyed her for the past 7 years. My dad raced inboard hydroplanes in Solomons Island in the early 50's.

Has anyone replaced the the sink and or shower fixtures in the head? I have searched and not found the the original style fixtures anywhere.

I purchased a 1982 SF with 3208 CATS 270 hp. When I purchased my boat, from the original owner, the engines had @1750 hrs and ran well. I have been told by several very competent diesel mechanics that these engines should be good for at least 5000 hrs. if well maintained and not abused. I rarely run...

Jack, I have a 1982 33SF with 270 CATS 3208 @ 2000 hrs. I cruise 17- 20 knts and top speed 23.5 - 25 knts. My boat has a hardtop, full bridge curtains, and a marlin tower with a hard top. My last trip I ran 5-6 hours at cruise and burned right at 120 gallons. There were propably a few short trips at...

We appreciate all that you have done! I was just curious since there were some great information sources beside Danny at High Tide.

Thanks again

Have you thought about rigging a bimini frame to the bow rail. I believe that there are brackets that can be removed without excessive work. Just attach it close to the deck. Check out "MarinePartsDepot.com" a great source for stainless steel hardware.

I still have the original hot water heater in my 82SF and it works just fine. Hard wired with a heat exchanger hook up. I believe it is a Raritan.
