I recently received a classic 12' fiberglass runabout, from what research i have been able to do i think it's a 1960 Bellboy Bonanza but i am uncertain of this and really just want to know what my boat is as well as any info about it from others. It is a very retro looking boat with small subtle wings in the back, two forward facing bench seats with the front seat having a cut out in the back. The top is red with a white bottom, the bow is rounded with almost no point to it. It has a 33 horse Johnson super sea horse outboard motor on it with electric start put on. When i got the boat it was in pretty hard shape cosmetically, i have since put many hours and dollars into it and it looks many times better than when i got it. I have repainted the whole boat, as well as the outboard, i have bought all new electrical, lighting, and hardware as well as repaired the trailer by giving it new paint, fixed all rust spots, put on new fenders and tires, as well as a new lighting kit and jack. I am having seats custom made to fit and mounting a small flag pole on the back. This has been my project for the past couple months and i am very ready to get it in the water. I would like to know what type of boat i have, the year it is, and any info on it, also it needs to be named so I'd love to hear any creative/ funny names. I will post some pics of it as soon as i can. Thanks.
