    ...Looks like a Rayson-Craft.
    I know they built a few...Saw one in Havasu a few years back,that was a blank hull,the owner was going to rig it himself.Funny thing was one sponson was a couple of inches higher than the other.
    I'll bet BadBlown572...could tell us who else might have splashed a Rayson to create a line of cats...

    I am not 100% positive, but I would bet that boat came from the mold made by Rayson Craft. The Rayson Craft cat started off as a splash off of a Carrera 257 and then they took the deck of their 27' offshore and cut it up to make the new deck. The deck is extremely similar in the rear and it also appears that the gage cluster layout is the same as the 27' offshore. I am very confident that it is the same boat. I have also never heard of "Atomic" boats in the past. Probably a boat company that either aquired the mold when Rayson Craft went out of business or a company who came across the boat and built it themselves. The only real way to tell with 100% accuracy is to read the VIN# off the back of the boat.
    Boat in question:

    Another thing to look at is the way that the cleats are semi "frenched" into the side of the boat. This is a pretty unique characteristic. Both the boat in question and the 27 V Bottom are the same. The location is also extremely (if not exactly) close.

    It's the Rayson Craft in sheeps clothing. It appears to be
    much straighter than it was before. Hope so. You called it Mike Lucero. All the way from New Mexico. For those of you that don't know Mike (Playdeep) he'd give his left and right one to live closer to the river. Good people too. Happy Thanksgiving Mike and everyone else.
