"Looking to buy a 46 foot 81 B
"Looking to buy a 46 foot 81 Bertram, it has twin 8v71TI's in it. They are indeed turbos. The marina selling the boat told me that that is the orginal version of that particular engine on the that boat. The boat is a clean as you can imagine. I'm a special ed. teacher, so I am not that current with the problems of the 8v71's. I do understand about the noise, smoke, and oil that it uses. The engines have 2100 hours on them, with the last major overhaul taking place 700 hours ago. They are asking $200,000 for the boat which is a considerable investment for my wife and I. Any information that anyone could afford me would be greatly appreciative. thank you. Michael from Pittsburgh"
