yes.....nice isn't it

Yes it is Joe !! In my opinion these old girls sure do look really good compared to today's cookie cutter boats.

Can someone tell me in post #665... what is sea twister?

Just guessing, looks like a 24-7 boat, Excaliber or P&D?

Sea Twister looks to be a 7 Meter Martini. This pic came from a Ohio GLOPRA race around 1976-77, hopefully a Ohio club member will chime in.

Phil,

Did you buy your Bertram Baron new as well?

Does Rich have the NN stills collection as well?

I purchased the 28 Bertram Baron from Stone Harbor Marina. It was a used boat, bought it in the winter time, made a deal with the Marina to remove both engines and drives and Install New Holman Moody 290 Hp with Volvo drives - Stone Harbor Marina had at least 5 Bertram Barons there - (not all were for sale) - Mine was the
boat that was used in their Brochure - and had the Bertram Nautic Special painted on each side, close to the transome. I had a feeling the orriginal engines were not in running condition.

As for the NNRT Still collection, I gave it to my twin brother Peter after Rich and Darren got the Video Library.
I think there are close to 600 or more Slides or transparencies in the collection. - I am sure it would be
available for sale, offers accepted.

Good looking boat the 28 foot Baron,sadly we never got them in "OZ"

al's boat was legendary - then again, so was al. it had small blocks with y-pipes very unique sound.

As I said before, $$$ makes boats go fast.

If you spend enough $$$ you can make a ugly girl look gorgeous.
