Bertram 50

"Bandit" is the ultimate Battlewagon. She has been cared for with an open checkbook policy and continually upgraded. This three stateroom, two head, galley up layout is the best bang for your buck. She can sleep 8 guests including a custom-built fold down sleeper sofa. Whether it's offshore fishing at Tanner Bank or cruising to the islands for the weekend or the month, you'd be hard pressed to find a better platform at this size. LLC owned, tender not included in sale. Over 200K spent on her over the last 4 years.

You will not find a B50 in better shape than Bandit coast-to-coast. Her mechanical systems are in 10/10 shape. Her previous owner provided ALL service records and also took care of her with an open checkbook. She has been painted, all rub rail/railings replaced with stainless on main level, custom hard top and flybridge all updated. She looks much younger than her build date. She cruises at 19-21 knots depending on load and sea state.
