Silver BulletBy Diane M. Byrne

With its custom silver paint job, stainless steel accents, and a top speed of nearly 58 mph, the Silver Bullet 20 is aptly named. Aimed at water enthusiasts who want something out of the ordinary, the 20-footer, built by Chris-Craft, is a limited-edition model; in fact, just 150 units are being made. So what do you get if you join this exclusive club? A pop-up ski pylon, a teak swim platform with stainless steel ladder, a Kenwood stereo/CD player, and a six-month subscription to Sirius satellite radio, for starters. There are adjustable, flip-up bucket seats forward, plus additional seating fully aft, to accommodate you and four guests. A bimini (fabric top, for shade) stores under the back seating, though you can opt for a convertible top instead. And lest you forget you’re aboard a Chris-Craft, there’s plenty of teak underfoot on the cockpit floor and on deck rails, and both the helmsman and front passenger get teak footrests, too. Even without the throttles pushed to their limits, the Silver Bullet 20 has good performance; Chris-Craft says it has a range of 113 miles at the 24-mph cruise speed. $75,668 and $85,000, chriscraft.com.
