Bertram Caribbean 31 Flybridge Cruiser


"Defiance 2" is a beautiful example of a 1989 Bertram Caribbean 31 flybridge powered by twin 200hp Volvo shaft drives. The 1989 Bertram Caribbean 31 Flybridge is a legendary, Australian-built fibreglass flybridge cruiser renowned for its exceptional offshore performance, robust build quality, and practical layout.
