An eighteen meter classic Bertram sportfish yacht sank in the evening of thirty November while in its mooring on the Miami river, Fort Lauderdale. The eighteen meter Bertram sank due to the neglect of recent years, with some reports stating it was not used and rotting in its slip for about ten years. The day after to the sinking on the first December the yacht was taken and salvaged to the Bradford Yacht Service in Fort Lauderdale.
The Bertram in this sinking is a 60 as designed by David Napier and produced from 1992 till 2002. An evolution of the top selling 54, the Bertram 60 like the smaller sister is renowned for having one of the best seaworthy hulls ever made. In 1997 Studio Faggioni updated the interior and a bit of the exterior in the Bertram 60, creating the second generation series. The Bertram 60 was replaced by the Zuccon designed 630 in 2003.
