Bradley canoe question?

paddlepaddlepaddle

Can anyone give some history on the different Bradley canoes. Looking thru the dec. pacific paddler, I noticed 3 diff. Bradleys, the Striker,Racer, and Lightning, and there is a 4th one called the Encore? which one was the earliest. Did Sonny Bradley also make the Rocket? if not who did. Mahalo

racer->striker->encore->lightning.
i think the encore was the hull of the striker with lowered gunwales to make it easier for water changes

I think the rocket, aka the Hawaiian Racer, was made by Diversified Glass. I think.
