Prather's are epoxy fiberglass.

Definitely MRP tunnels. They made a .20 and a .40 size.

If those are MRP's then they're long before my time! As far as I know, MRP only offered a .21 as far as I know but it came two ways, the Mirage and the Bud Light. The difference was that you didn't pay extra for the Anheuser-Busch royalty and extra money for the fancier decals.

MRP's! The .21 MRP with a K&B 3.5 O/B on it was my first r/c boat that I bought when I got started in R/C Boating in 1985. I eventually put a K&B 7.5 O/B on it. It ran surprisingly well with it on there!

If memory serves, the .20 boat is the MRP Mach 1. The .40 size boat is Mach II. MRP released these in the early 80's...perhaps even 1979.

The Bud Light and the Mirage were introduced in the 90's I recall.
