Nice job. FYI My grandmother worked on Bertram boats on fiberglass and her brother was the electrician on the boats. The factory is based here in Miami.
Just finished a repower / rewire on a 30 foot Almar, still in the break in period, man was it a pain, but now that it's done it is so sweet, increased top end 25 % to 40 knots and doubled fuel economy and range...
I would have glassed-in all that below-decks woodwork and I would have tidied up the wiring a bit more and fitted labels so you know at a glance which wire is which, but on the whole a decent effort.
Outstanding use of the "...Stars..."! Great video. Assume he paid $5 for the hull. And congratulations for the very nice rework for the Tough in the Boondocks Bert, which didn't look cheap at all. Even though and old post, still nice to view.
OMG what size rock did you hit? I know Catalina its rought around the edges, but MAN next time stay away from them rocks. The now new boat looks great a fantastic job. I dont know what you do for a living,but i think you should be a boat builder. love it.
And how would that work? Since the engines were spinning around max power rpm on the full power run what makes you think having less blades would make it faster. There can be a tiny increase in efficiency, but also a loss of smoothness. If you don't understand all that then why did you comment in the first place? You would throw on? LOL!
Your the one that seems to think I don't understand. My comment was based on the wheels on my Bertram after a repower and trials. Yeah the 4 blades were a little smoother, but at the expense of both rated cruise & top rpm.
She will rarely run at 2200rpm. Basically it's a 24knot boat. Not bad for a boat that age, but woefully slow compared to modern sportfisherman. 30kt cruise has been the norm for a decade or more. Plenty of modern fishing boats are faster than that.

Bar none the cleanest and most professional repower I have ever seen! Thank you for posting

awesome.
musics fine intro/outro
28 knots at 2200 rpm is pretty good! What would cruise rpm be, about 1950 rpm?
Curious if this project (Toro2)was paid for with insurance money received after the first boat(Toro1) hit the rocks?
My left ear loved this video.
How much did you pick up the salvage for?
I’m trying to source 2 cummins 6bt engines for my 64 bertram 42 footer
how much is it cost you for everything
2800#s torque, better hear those turbs whine 30psi
Theres a salon?
I would throw on a set of 3 blades for more speed.

28knts at 2200rpm on a 43ft boat isn't fast enough for you? Lol what a dipshit.
Screw you asshole.

MY EARS !
Where there's a will there's a way
And all I want is to get rid of Gen 4 454 Crusaders :(
needs turbos, intercoolers and stiffer props
Double d's please
Why is the crappy music needed
All this effort
And can't respond to one comment
Dislike

Amazing what can be done with money to piss.
"piss?" Better you should look at all the jobs that that were created.
