Built to cross oceans and reach the world’s most remote anchorages, Silver Bullet is a rare aluminum pilothouse yacht that delivers true expedition capability without sacrificing comfort. Designed by Mike Scolfield (American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) naval architect/engineer known for updating yacht construction standards) and constructed by well known Hike Metal Industries shipyard, she combines commercial‑grade strength with a warm, beautifully finished interior — a serious blue water cruiser for sailors who want to go anywhere with confidence.

• Aluminum expedition‑grade construction with reinforced zones
• Four watertight compartments for exceptional offshore safety and peace of mind
• Hydraulic lifting keel (10’ down / 6’6” up) for offshore performance and shallower water access
• Protected pilothouse helm station with full visibility, gimballed helm seat and pilot berth to ensure your comfort - even in wet conditions
• Extensive sail inventory for all conditions

Purpose‑built for long‑range passagemaking, Silver Bullet features a robust aluminum hull, Hall Spars rig, carbon spinnaker pole, many sails including storm jib and spinnakers. Her systems are equally expedition‑ready: Yanmar 100 hp engine, Yanmar genset, Aqua Marine watermaker, Espar hydronic heat, wind and water generators, solar panel, ultrasonic antifouling, and a full suite of Simrad, Raymarine, B&G and SSB communications.

Below deck, the handcrafted cherry‑and‑ash interior offers two double berths, two single berths, another dedicated pilothouse watch berth, two heads and a functional, comfortable layout ideal for extended living aboard. With her lifting keel, protected helm, and ocean‑ready systems, Silver Bullet is a versatile yacht equally suited for high‑latitude exploration, tropical cruising, or a full circumnavigation. Other highlights;

• Capac hull monitor (real time display of hull continuity/scacrificial zinc protection & performance)
