Lesser known performance brands

We all know the big popular names like Baja, Fountain, Scarab and so many others that even have there own forums on here but what are some of the less known brands?

I am restoring a 1987 21 Mirage Intruder nice boat solid built but hard to find many others like it so it just made me wonder how many other lesser know brands are out there.

Of that list, I'd love to own a TUFF 28 with a 700 or 600 turned up with Whipple upgrades. Those things look sexy as hell and run 95+ with a straight bottom and 525 without any setup.

Of course, they're $$$!
