I've only seen one Bullet that didn't have them....and it wasn't used much. Before I bought my Top Gun, I called and talked with Craig Barrie and Scott Smith. Scott told me exactly where to look in the cabin (at the foot of the berth) and he assured me that it would have some cracks there. He was right. It was explained to me that they are not structural and it's a result of square angles and the flexing of the boat.

That being said, you HAVE to get a survey and have the transom, stringers and bulkheads checked out!!!!!!!! They are a different story!!!

That pretty much summed it up.

I looked at a Bullet this past weekend at LOTO and it had a crack in the deck right where the right side steps up. Is this a common issue for Bullets? Have you guys experienced this?

Thanks!

Was that the maroon one at Double Diamond Brokers?
What kind of condition was it in? Just curious
because I had called on that one.

Yep, that's it. I'm far from being a boat expert, but it seemed pretty solid, from what I can tell. I made mention here of the crack on the deck and I'm told that's pretty normal. I believe the exterior was repainted, and it seemed like a good job. The dash was painted white, and I felt that was a bit sloppy. Trim pieces that should have been removed weren't. The cabin seemed to be in good shape.... not updated, but good condition for original. The engines were supposedly rebuilt by Advanced Marine at LOTO a few years ago (5-10 years, I believe). They list them at 420, but the broker feels they're probably more like 450+. Since he can't prove this, he lists them as 420.
This is definitely cheaper than most Bullets, and the reason is that it's closer to original. Not as many updates as a lot of the other boats out there. I'd be curious what a survey would tell.

I'd like to see a survey on it also. It's been for sale all summer.

Anyone here know anything about it???

Keytime- I'm driving up to LOTO to buy this one on Friday?? No one mentioned the crack and I havent been up there yet? Just a little worried, Could you PM or email me and give me some intel on the boat-financing and insurance are locked in, was hoping to schedule a survey before Friday, Thanks!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, I'm just curious.

Wayne - I ran across this. Check out the Bullet 48 seconds in. I am guessing that is the one you speak of in Norway/Sweden but figured I'd post it anyways in case it wasn't.

That's the one. I may not like the all red, but it sure makes it easy to spot!
