Why can't I find info on my boat?

Hi everyone, this is my first post, and doing so in desperation. Just bought a bowrider. Here's what I know for sure:

1) it's an open deck bowrider
2) it has Sunliner stickers on the hull, and embroided on the seats.
3) the id hull tag claims it's a Seville model
4) the serial number on the hull makes it a 1991
5) It measures approximately 16.5ft
6) it has an outboard

Why do I google 1991 Sunliner Seville and find NOTHING on this boat, just Cadillac info? If I google 1991 bowrider Seville, a lot of Sea Ray info comes up. Nothing on eBay either. I can't find any photos of similar boats. I want to order a bimini top and see what other parts might be available. Thanks!

there was a company called sunliner in 1988 (a one-year wonder). your boat could be the 168 or 168S

Unfortuneatly, many manufacturers of the late 80's and early 90's came and went.

most of the time Bimini tops and other equipment are not hull specific. the following link is a good source for Bimini tops http://biminitops.iboats.com/
