1995 24' Radon

[DeadlyD]

Question about a 24' Radon. Was Don Radon still making this boat in 1995?? or is it possible that it was built by another boat maker? I have done some research into this, but can't find out for sure. Is there a way to know for sure. ID #, CF#? Just curious if someone has a little insight on this. Thanks in advance. I don't have any pics to share yet. Maybe after this weekend. Cheers. Dave

@sbsurfer and a few other 805ers seem to know most of the radon details,Im sure one of them will chime in when they see this.

Thanks for that. That is exactly what I was hoping for.
Cheers.

Jeff Chamberlin (@point_arguello_yacht_club on instagram) knows alot about the history as well. I know Jeff Hull is the only one doing Radons now, but Radon Jr was until just recently as well

There is also a big thread on spearboard called "the legend of radon" that has a ton of info,I want to say that yes he was building them in 95 but im not 100% sure of that.Other Radon family members also produced those hulls to though (I think) in norcal or oregon in that time frame.

I’m pretty sure Ron Radon was making boats in the 90’s up in Oregon

What does the pink slip/title say...who is the manufacturer?

I'm not quite sure when Don stopped making 24s, but I think it was in the 80s when he switched to building sport boats and less commercial fishing boats.

H&F was making 24s around that time, Ron Jr too but he was only a boat or two per year. Does it have a dip bow?

My bad, I thought H&F was Ron Radon’s boat business.
were H&F and Ron Radon both in Oregon?

Yes. Ron was out of Myrtle Creek and H&F out of Bandon I think.
