Does anyone know any history on Race craft hulls. My uncle has a hull that is a 1972 Race craft V-drive. Just trying to find a little info on the history of that make of hull. If anyone has any info that would be great. Thanks

Race Craft or "Rayson Craft" ? 1972 would lead me to believe the latter not the former. ;)

Rayson Craft I believe. I don't no much. My uncle has had this boat for years. All I know it is a 1972 and V-drive. I'm trying to learn more about it. It's a bad ass hull never seen very many of then.

Rayson
Great boats! I had one for a very short time. Built a BBC for it, cleaned it up a little. Someone at a dock offered me more money than the fun I thought it was so I sold it after only a couple short runs. :banghead: SOB WAS FAST! It had a TH400 in it and I never did get it into 3rd gear.
My understanding is, the ones to have back in the day were the Rayson Craft, Biesemeyer, Sanger, and Rogers (probably forgetting a couple others in there, but I'm just coming off 2 18 hour days in a row and probably3 hours sleep). I recently passed on another Rayson Craft, but a jet. This one with the cav plates, down pedal, all that, but only a mild BBC in it. Too much money. Boat looked good for 45 years old, but needed work.
