Glastron

Glastron is owned by Rec Boat Holdings, a subsidiary of Groupe Beneteau.

Glastron's "Glastonbury" boats were featured in the James Bond films Live and Let Die and Moonraker.

For Live and Let Die, a boat chase was filmed in Louisiana around the Irish Bayou area.

[1] Twenty-six boats were built by Glastron for the film, of which seventeen were destroyed during rehearsals.

[2] The speedboat jump scene over the bayou, filmed with the assistance of a specially-constructed ramp, unintentionally set a Guinness World Record at the time with 110 feet (34 m) cleared.
