In Response To: Re: ??? Unoffical Bertram 20 Site??? (Jim Kilbane)

Jim,

I did an 18 month rebuild and customization of my B20 from Moppie to CC and dropped a Volvo D3 deisel in her which weighed in at 682 lbs complete, almost identical in weight to the original 6 banger she came with and close in cost to the 200 OB you were considering. I cannot be any happier. I also put a 75 gal fuel tank in her, moving the forward under-deck bulkhead 18" to the bow, replacing the tank pad along the way. I'm glad to hear you are going to keep it as an IO. As many other pointed out, with it's small size, wide beam and super deep V, this boat is very sensitive to any major changes. I'd be happy to share my project pics with you as soon as my home PC is recovered from whatever the ^%(^&$(&^ is wring with it. My question is this-how extensive a restoration are you planning? The reason I ask is that I have some other input you might be interested in that is pretty involved and if yer not really going hard at it, I don't wanna waste my time and Pat's bandwidth...
