The deep-V hull is designed for offshore work
Bertram built the 60 around a sharp entry and substantial deadrise intended to handle difficult sea conditions at speed. Heavy-duty diesel power and large fuel capacity support longer offshore runs rather than limiting the yacht to short coastal trips.
The construction also incorporates measures intended to reduce noise and vibration in the saloon. That matters on a sportfisher because machinery output can otherwise dominate the onboard experience during long passages.
The cockpit is purpose-built for fishing
The single-level cockpit includes a transom door, raised observation mezzanine, fish boxes, transom livewell and dedicated bait-preparation area. Reinforcement beneath the sole allows a full fighting chair to be installed for tournament use.
This is equipment with a clear operational purpose rather than decorative styling. Buyers who are not serious anglers should consider whether they value the specialised cockpit enough to justify the space it occupies compared with a conventional cruising yacht.
Three cabins broaden the yacht beyond fishing
ISAKINDOFMAGIC accommodates six guests in three staterooms with two heads, including an island-queen master and forward VIP. The interior combines the practical requirements of an offshore sportfisher with a more residential finish associated with Bertram’s Ferretti Group period.
The flybridge also provides guest seating around the command station, making it possible for family and friends to remain involved while underway. Owners should assess access and weather protection if the yacht will be used in tropical conditions.
The asking price targets a specialist buyer
At $795,000, the yacht sits in a market where condition and machinery history matter more than model year alone. A detailed engine survey, structural inspection and review of fishing-equipment condition would be central to assessing value.
For LYG readers wanting a sub-20-metre yacht capable of both offshore fishing and comfortable cruising, ISAKINDOFMAGIC offers a specialised alternative to mainstream flybridge designs. Its strongest case is for an owner who will actually use the capability built into it. That final ownership calculation should include insurance, annual maintenance and the availability of local technical support in the buyer’s normal cruising area.
