I have had this boat for years, and know nothing about it. I am going to set it up and run it. Any information would be great. I cant find any sign of any set up in the boat, so any information on radio and tank location would also help. Thanks for any help.nicon 2021 128.JPGnicon 2021 134.JPG

Some history....
This is a Sundowner or El Diablo from the 80's........These were real popular in So. Cal ....They ran 3.5 K&B's outboard with crankcase pressure and a K&B speed needle and a Joe Monahan [707 enterprises] exhaust throttle....;)
These 3.5 K&B motors would RPM through the roof.....Prather made a 3.5 outboard epoxy boat called the Spitfire that also ran in the 3.5 outboard hydro class......Prather also made a bolt on skeg kit that attached to the 3.5 K&B outboard cavitation plate......
There were about 6 people that ran in this class that all were within a mile an hour of each other....so when you got them all running
in a heat they put on a real show.....
Now , with all this useless information and $5.00 you can still buy a cup of coffee at any Dennys...lol....😂😂
I still have some more pertinent info about the boats and motors used in this class and how it was run in the 80-90's.....call me if you want to know it.....1-715-926-6096.....Just to much keyboarding to put on here.....
 
I think so. it has been a while since I built it. I just set it and forget it as old ron popell would says. LOL Still hauls ass with the OG motor set up.
