Who knows anything about Sun Devil boats? They were built in the early 90s and I was told only a few exist. A friend of mine bought it new at the boat show in ‘91. It is a 22ft jet with a big block. I was watching it run this weekend in Havasu and was impressed with the way it took a set and handled. Really impressive boat and built well. I was curious if it was a splashed bottom or built from scratch.

Never heard of them either , Coast Guard listed a Sun Devil Marine in Mesa AZ.

With the exception of the "Spoiler" transom lip, which is un-Cole, the front deck and deck step-up, is very Cole Super Hawk-ish.

It’s funny you mention Cole. That’s what I thought it was until I saw the spoiler.

Maybe that is one of the small changes they made to the mold, when they splashed the Cole?

My 1st Cole was a Superhawk. Then had Jim build me a Nighthawk, now in the possession of my son, showing it some love and on it's way back to Havasu soon. 👍

Never heard of it didn’t see earlier, but did you post up to him number Sun devil Marine looks like it made pontoon boats I thought I had seen her knew about most every Jetboat ever ever made but that one is a stumper. The front end of it looks like one boat and the little whale tail to back. Looks like something from maybe sundown Marine just a thought.

My first thought when I saw it was a Cole splash. When I see it in person again, I will try to get some detailed pics of the bottom.
