John,
Carla has a Saltwater beast in the 27 Seamaster that will
run circles around any Bertram!!!!
For the asking price you could not even buy the engines
for any other boat!!
Trust me there would not be anybody that would not be looking at you while heading out to the deep blue... 
See ya, Ken

Oh I know! it would turn heads,and boy would I love to own it.I look at the pics. of it several times a week.It would actually be an awesome great lakes boat,especially for my type of fishing (strictly trolling)
The other nice thing would be blowing by lots of other boats in the 30'and over range when caught in that crappy steep close wave snott.
Nothing would be better than rubbing it in to the guys(friends)in their so called high pedigree boat brands by blowin by em in the slop.
I know this sounds really "Juvenille",but there is one guy who has two Tiaras,(a 31 & a 36)He's a charter captain,and kind of a friend,but he's a bit cocky and arrogant.What ever he has,or whatever he does is the best(in his mind anyway).
That is one!!guy I'd love to go blowin by,especially with a 27'boat from the sixties.
Heck,I do it now in the 23 Tsunami.Had a guy in a 28'Baha cruisers(not Baja)say to me,"hey,how fast were you going when you passed me coming in?"
He asked because it was a bit nasty,steep waves,with a weird direction to them.I was able to get on top of them and keep a good speed while he was taking a beating.
If I didn't have the Tsunami,and was living up near the lake I would be giving serious thought to that 27,what a beauty.
And why wasn't I born rich so that I could have all the toys that I want(like that 27 Seamaster)and why do I,or we keep getting older.?
Old timer,
I've been down to Sayville a few times in the last month to see my son,one of these days I got to get in touch with you.Would love to see your rigs.
looks like you really can't compare the bertram 20 & 25 to the Seacraft 23' as the 20 Bert is quite a bit smaller and the 25 Bert is much larger.All beautiful boats however.
