2003 570 Bertram - CARA MIA

CARA MIA is a perfect example of why the Bertram 570 is the boat of choice for the serious angler. The 570 offers a huge flybridge, a massive salon the legendary Bertram RIDE. This 570 is powered by lightweight 1300hp MAN engines. The interior of this 570 is the rare "plan A". The galley is up with solid surface countertops, custom cabinetry and a full-sized stand-up refrigerator. The salon offers an open-air feel with large windows and solid cherry joinery work. A view of the cockpit is the primary focus when on the salon's aft facing section of the sofa so the action is never out of sight. Down the stairs to port is the master stateroom with an island queen and private head with separate stall shower. Across from the master entrance is the guest stateroom; and while most builders would have bunks in the third stateroom, Bertram has comfortable side by side berths. Forward in the forepeak is the VIP featuring an "island queen" with private head and separate stall shower.

Outside CARA MIA features a huge cockpit ready to fish and an impressive tower and electronics package. Her engine room is immaculate.
