The first one has been for sale for a while, Also the price has chaged from 59,999 to 49,999 to 69,999. It's also on Florida c/l for 49,999. I personally like #1 better but am afraid of why it's been f/s for so long.

Go look at Kevin's boat you won't find one cleaner. The Bullet guys should chime in here. You get a ton a boat with the Bullet. My first ride in a Cig was a Bullet and that is what got me hooked. I love the Cafe's they have always been one of my favorite boats,but I talked Kevin into looking at Bullets. For what you are looking to spend you can write your check and start enjoying it. There is nothing left to do. I am afraid with that Cafe that won't be the story. But I am glad to see you narrowing down to a Cigarette.

#1 looks nice, but I know nothing about it.

#2 I've seen first hand. It's very clean and runs strong.

#1 has been for sale for quite a while. Looks good, but I would try and get a history on it from this website and maybe the "other site". For sure get a full survey before buying.

#2 boat (Kreed's) looks like alot of boat for the money. If I'm correct, the motors have low hours on them. I don't think you can find a "bigger" running 31' boat. I typically run in whatever a 38 can handle. It's a wave crusher. I can't say enough good stuff.

Only negatives I can even say about a Bullet is while the cabin is huge, the cockpit is a little tight. Also, unless you use tabs some, the boat may have a slight porpoise in calm water (But it's no big deal).

Either one looks good since it has a #1 on the side!

I've owned 4 bullets before my gun and you can't go wrong with one. Bullets will do everything you want to do imo.

Boat#1: Ived talked to him, as I mistook it for on in cali. I kinda got the feeling boat "looks" nice but you can polish anythign to look good. Seems there is a possability of unknow stuff that may pop up.
Boat 2# Im pretty sure everyone knows the boat. Motors were done this year runs great was wiht him over the weekend.

Bern, on that Cafe im not so sure I would trust those motors. Not a fan of Pro Chargers. Boat seems nice though. I really like Kreeds Bullet. Its a prime example of classic, great looking Cigarette and can run low 80's. The bullet would easily be my choice between those two.

It doesn't look like the Cafe Racer has hydraulic steering. Pretty expensive item to add to a boat.
