The boat component that suffers a major decay, is the aluminum windshield and side windows
Windows frames are Bertram 31 chink in the armor, due to galvanic corrosions between two dissimilar metals tighten together (aluminum frame and stainless steel bolts).
We meticulously scanned the old frame in order to achieve a precise vectorial image of it, to milling a plug for moulding a fiberglass frames set.
The outcome is a well proportioned structure, seamlessly fitting onto the boat.
LOAD-BEARING framework strengthen deck and flybridge assembly, eliminating the tedious bow deck bouncing.
The improved edges for glass bonding, allowed the installation of real stratified and tempered glasses, even for side curved frames!
This achievement, combined with the smart concept of a tailored, lifetime lasting, LOAD-BEARING windscreen system, fired up the idea to becoming some dab hand in Bertram 31 RESTOMODS, combining the blend of classic style and modern performances.
