"Bertha Ballast"? Is that like the military's version of the M.O.A.B (mother of all ballast)? :D

My 02 has an older version of the Bertha Ballast system. Not sure when it was introduced.

From what i found out the Bertha Ballast was an Original Skiers Choice line and it was featured in Moomba and Supra boats. It looks to be the first 3 bag ballast system which gave it the Bertha name. Before that most integrated systems were 1 bag.

so i assume these switches and harness will work just fine for a GI to GIII upgrade

I would expect so because ultimately its just a relay switch bank.

The switches, breaker, and panel all look exactly the same as what came stock in my 08 w/ GIII. Just different graphics.
