    fantastic. is that a US built bertram or a scoresby built boat? yours?

    must be early...youd be hard pressed to find a Berty 28 without diesels these days.

    was checking them out on the net and a few detail differences....early US boats no bow sprit for one.

    timeless things, love em.

    Scoresby built circa 1977,photo about 1980 odd,in those days they had a much thicker hull then todays boats.Fathers boat called Elsie Sherrin,now down at sandringham.

    Early 25s had a flat frontal area less head room.

    couldnt say mate, through my scouring of boatpoint i havent seen any 28's of recent years, so id say mid 90s maybe? earlier..? not sure...

    shame to lose it IMO as its a great boat and not quite as BIG as a 32.

    who knows, 23 relaunching this yr (as a 24) so maybe we'll see 28 again someday.

    yeah the bertys hold value exceptionally well. im told new 23 Flybridge $32k in 1988....nowdays you need $45k for a goodie.

    cant wait to get a bigger boat and do westernport etc runs, refuge cove on wilsons prom another gem of a place to visit in a big boat

    up til mid 90s standard issue was 5.0 freshwater cooled...95 ish onwards 5.7 350 fresh cooled....we would aim for a 350.

    were also avail in diesel, but very low takeup rate...must have been $$

    sorry missed the "i" there

    yeah the 4.3 LX is a great engine..240hp apiece i think, plenty of mumbo in the 26

    id be getting twin 4cyl diesels though. more torque, bigger prop, quicker onto plane, and better economy
