Old school rulz?
Of course you mean whom MADE them , not who makes them, as by the transom arrangement, hull shape, choco brown pinstriping etc
its a late 80,s very early 90,s boat I would say.
The stacer seats look to be a red herring , but bizarrely stacer do make trident models in ali now!!
It has a by millard sticker just below the name , so they may have been a dealer / seller I would hazard a guess, so maybe they have info themselves.
There were so many glass boats made in the 70,s and 80,s , that once a mold was made , it was quite often bought by others , and then renamed.
So basicly the same hull out of the same mold , could have been sold as 3 or 4 different named boats over a 20 year period.
There shape was still the same , but there build quality was only as good as the team putting it together.
However , this hull has survived use and time , looks to be a med deadrise hull , and has been taking a fair bit of power up its bum, for some years
so there probally all good things.
Someone on here must have owned one surely?

Pride used to make a Trident
cathedral hull job that is stable at rest and pounds pretty hard with the nose to. Glastron(USA made) made a similar cathedral hull that in my opinion is a heavier, stronger, better put together boat.
FEEEISH ONNN!!!
