Cigarette 28 SS clones

Cigarette 28 SS clones
Hi,
I've started to look at the 28 SS as my next boat. There are not many where I live, but one of them seems really nice. The funny thing about it is that it seems to be a "clone" - a splash from a genuine original 28 SS. It doesn't even have a HIN starting with "CRT", but it starts with "NYZP..." and so on. Does anyone know what company might have made this "copy"? (The HIN ends with 86, so I guess that is the production year...?)
Any information regarding these 28 SS clones would be greatly appreciated!

Interesting info!.Thanks! I'm sure about the P. I am not sure about whether the 1 is actually 1 or I. I also don't know about any of the Os; are they letters or numbers?"HOMEMADE BOATS" is that a company or is it a label for any boat made by a private person instead of a company?

Does anyone know what company might have built a Cigarette 28 clone? I recall someone talking about a company called "Raven boats" a few years back, and another one called Lebear or something like that... Anyone who knows anything about these companies?
