1963 BERTRAM 31' for Sale in Cowes, England

Legends rarely come to the open market, which makes this offering rather special and quite fun. Tommy Sopwith was an unapologetic chap's chap, and after winning the inaugural Cowes-Torquay Race in August 1961 on THUNDERBOLT, he needed something bigger—and FASTER! Enter THUNDERSTREAK in '63, a Bertram 31 Competition. Completely re-engineered, breathtakingly fast, and proven to be utterly reliable, she has raced under the Team RYS banner and now boasts guttural twin Mercruiser H.O. big block V8s paired with Race X legs. A wallflower she is not. Rescued from the grave and having won the triple crown with panache and charm, she is now 100% ready for her next chapter. No time-wasters, please.

About Oaksmith Yachts

We know what it feels like to need to know what's past that next hill. To stare across an ocean and want to see what's out there. To wonder what's in that bay or on that island past that next point. To only have a day or a week to explore what should take months. We know what it's like to not be able to afford to let the weather stop you. We know what it feels like and we have a solution.
