Trying to ID my mystery Glastron

[Raybo01]

I'm about to pick up what I believe is a Glastron, but it only has a "Laraya" logo and a 6-digit serial number, no other markings. I've found almost nothing online. I want to know how to tell the year?

If it only has a 6 digit serial number and no standard 12-character HIN or Hull Identification Number, its most likely pre-1972 when HINs became mandatory in the US. Anyway, someone should recognize the model or logo from some members and enthusiasts here. Also check the transom or inside the hull for any hidden tags or plaques that could give more clues.

Thanks, that helps a lot! I'll look around the transom and inside the hull for any hidden tags

You can also try matching the serial number style or boat design to old Laraya or Glastron catalogs from the '60s or early '70s.
