Happy birthday, Tim. Still have a great pic of my Velocity 280 that you took at a Buffalo Poker Run.

Got very involved with restoring several Bullet Boats that I built back in 1985 while working for the company. This Bullet 130 SV, Converting a 20’ CC to a closed offshore deck in which I just sold so that I can concentrate on my 22’ Bullet Offshore restoration.

Bullet 20 SV https://www.timsharkey.com/20ft-bullet-boat-project

Bullet 22 SV https://www.timsharkey.com/22-bullet-boat-hull-3

Time consuming to say the least but I currently still shoot events during the season.

Happy 60th Tim! I have been enjoying watching your restoration videos on YT. I'm 56 and reliving my youth in a new to my 23' Kryptonite OB. It's not about the size or HP of your chit. Get out there and enjoy it while we can as Tim reminded me. I loved the "build your own nice Chit" video Tim. Words to live by.

Thanks Interceptor !
I put my heart and soul into this Bullet 130 SV
Still dialing it in but the toughness of this build is way beyond my expectations.
As hard as I have run this boat so far there are no stress cracks anywhere. Not bad for a straight glass hull with a Balsa Core Transom and hollow fiberglass stringers…
