Boats That Have Been Copied...
Here's one. Copied more than once. The 15 HydroStream Viper. Copied almost exactly, by Skeeter Odyessy back when.

Actually you are a little part right.....Schuster borrowed a Glastron and Splashed the hull and made the SS Deck (Windshield) Not sure if Sidewinder Splashed the Schuster hull or did the same a borrowed a Glastron for the weekend......Sidewinder did theirs with a Lo Pro Deck then splashed the Schuster SS Torino Deck so as fair play Schuster Splashed the Sidewider Lo Pro deck....Then the law suits where flying and no one was winning anything so it turned into a free for all and now there are Splashes of Splashed boats that no one would even think about today.
The history used to be all over on the Sidewinder Forum and I think Old Rigger is still around who worked for one or the other or maybe even both......Been awhile.
About the only difference between the two boats are the seat set ups.....Sidewinder had A Frame Fiberglass Back to Back and Schuster used a Semi Barrel setup that are back to back.
Schuster seat setup.

the 380 Laser was copied quite a bit back in the early/mid 80s, the LTV also.
