1978 Bertram 28

1978 Bertram 28 Flybridge Cruiser

Freshwater, dual-station Bertram 28 Flybridge Cruiser with the same caring owner for the past 15 years. Well-maintained and thoughtfully updated while preserving her classic Bertram character and solid construction.

The layout includes a V-berth forward with hatch, a convertible dinette (sleeps 4), compact galley, and enclosed head. Custom teak trim, concealed LED lighting, and new plexiglass storage doors highlight the cockpit. Biminis at both helm stations, full canvas bridge and cockpit covers, and a swim platform with ladder add to her comfort and functionality.
