When I mentioned that I had a checkerboard Schiada flat he told me he was there when Leonard popped the first glass boat out of the mold. He said he helped deliver one to a guy back in Pennsylvania in 68 or 69. Wish I would've got to spend more time BS'n with him but his family came out of McGoo's and wanted to hit the road.

Anyways, original owner of this Rayson...I vaguely remember him saying there was a twin to this boat made.
Nice Find Ryan! Thanks for the pix.

Did they make any of this model in an open bow?
I bet one could fit a dozen seats in that boat and with the freeboard it should carry the weight.
