The new model marks the comeback of the Bertram brand after the company was acquired by Italy's Gavio Group in 2015. Gavio is the force that revived the Baglietto and CCN yacht brands in Italy.

The new Bertram 61 is a fresh start and becomes a competitor for rival brands like Viking and Hatteras.

The 61 feet (18.6m) fishing vessel features a Seakeeper gyro stabilizer, a teak cockpit designed for serious fishermen and an interior with an open-plan saloon and galley. There is no lower helm station. Belowdecks there are four staterooms.
