Willard Lucas(??) Drift Boat

Still trying to get more background on my antique wooden drift boat. The comment about Willard Lucas was helpful. A couple of additional features which might be diagnostic are: a storage box (20x11x10 in.) made from plywood and mounted to the floor in the bow and a spare oar which is 2 piece with a metal ferrule joint that has a twist lock.

Also in checking the registration papers for the trailer I noticed that is was made in 1961. Does any one know if Willard Lucas was making drift boats in 1961??

Thanks for all assistance!!
