About IRON Boats: A vision born from a market gap
Driven by a passion for the sea and a desire to fill a gap in the market, the Peterson brothers set out to create a new standard in stylish, functional and affordable day cruisers. With years of experience navigating the rugged Swedish archipelago and working hands-on as a boat retailer, they knew exactly what was missing: boats that combined cutting-edge performance with practical design.
To bring their vision to life, they partnered with the renowned Mannerfelt Design Team, experts in fuel-efficient, high-performance motorboats. The result was IRON, a sleek, versatile boat, built for adventure. Their stealth-inspired design, superior functionality, and outstanding seaworthiness quickly gained recognition both in Sweden and internationally.
The Peterson brothers have a deep understanding of what works on the water. Their expertise and commitment to innovation ensure that every IRON model is engineered to perform in all conditions, delivering an exhilarating and reliable boating experience.

We recently debuted our new Weldcraft 300 Cuddy King OS at the 2020 Chicago Boat Show. She WOWED attendees with her impressive size as well as the many custom features included in our "Great Lakes Edition" package. We are fortunate to have very talented people who can do custom welding, custom electrical systems, electronics, and custom fishing gear. Because of this we created this package specifically for fishing in the Great Lakes. Take a walk-through with Bruce from WeldCraft as he discusses this new 300 Cuddy King OS aluminum fishing monster and her great features to make die-hard fishermen comfortable in any type of weather.
The Chicago Boat Show had many boats but two favorites were definitely the Zodiac Open 6.5 and the all new Zodiac Medline 7.5. Take a video tour with Bob from Zodiac and Mark from Reed Yacht Sales and explore both these awesome ribs!

RYS's own Mark Derenne returned from the Ranger Tug Rendezvous up in Charlevoix, Michigan. What a great time! Ranger Tugs and their happy owners ventured in from all over the Great Lakes for some days of fun and fraternity. The harbor at Charlevoix is delightful spot, adjacent to a lovely downtown park and entertainment pavilion, main street shopping, many restaurants and enjoyable amenities. Mark stayed on a beautiful Ranger Tug R-29 that he brought to the event.
