What everone is forgetting or may not know about the Bullet, its the only boat in the list that has a BJ chair! Thats right, A kings chair in the cabin notorious with Cig owners for it's "dual purpose". My Bullet could potentially have 3 Blowers on it at once! I dont see that listed in any of those adds! Hahaha...Good luck with your search. Their all nice boats, but if it comes down to money...then buy the cheapest "1".....

That's the closest thing to a BJ emoticon I could find!

Oh, and for what it's worth, Kevin's Cig is damn clean in person.

Thanks Xconn! I remember you mentioned the BJ seat when lookin at my boat at Harbor Park. I can tell you pay attention to detail! Hey, hope to see you and the "crew" next summer.....

Ha... I've never been in a Bullet cabin, so I can't comment on the BJ chair, but the font V-birth of most performance boats, legs down, head back - that's some pretty comfy stuff right there!...

They definately are not flat out speed demons but when it gets stirred up out there they seem to be out front.
How much bigger is the power though than 500 efi's?

It's funny that he is shopping and looking for nearly exactly what I'm thinking of in spring if I sell my boat, down to similar price range. The 33 is a nice compromise of speed and great ride, but a Cafe or Gun will be a bit nicer ride that takes more power/gas to get the speeds. I just want to cruise around 60 easily in any weather I'd see on St Clair and run 80 when I want.

A 32-35' anything is a perfect Lk. St. Clair boat. Anything bigger than that out there, unless you're using the extra space for sleeping or storage or a family or something, is a waste. I have a 32' Baja and love it. I'm in basically the same boat you're in though... I'm just looking to get a little bit newer and a hull that is of a little better quality (32' Hustler, 33 PP, 31 Bullet, 35 Cafe), and a little better power.

from what im finding to get a 35 cafe to run 80 it will take a true 600hp per side. a 31 bullet will do it with approx 575 a side
