Default Bullet hatch pivot pins?

Does anyone know what holds the hinge pins in place on the main hatch? I managed to get the hatch out, but neither or the pins seems to be spring loaded (frozen?). Are they just pins with springs behind them, or some sort of glassed in mechanism?

Thanks- Don

Anyone familiar with how the hatch pins are removed from the hatch?

Thanks.

Don,

I wish I could help...

Maybe Kevin from Midwest Powerboats knows...He's done a few Bullets.

Your pal and navigator for the 05 season,

Kevin Costner also had a Bullet!!! I believe that it was named "Dances with waves"

Generally, there was a tube or just a hole drilled in the deck that the pins slid into with springs behind them. We put serrations in ours so that we can use a thin blade knife to slide then into the hatch so that it can be removed.

Hope that helps.
