sorry have been busy but it is a 1969 bellboy bonita. I am really looking for a factory used, in good shape fuel tank....I have a really nice poly tank that is twelve gallon but because of its shape it is a little big for the bilge and like i said can't find anywhere that knows anything about these....

I have a 1966 Bellboy, what I believe is a Beachcomer. Its a 19ft with a Buick 300/OMC Stringer outdrive. Sweet condition considering its age and all original except the carpet, I believe. I am just getting started into boating and am learning rapidly. I do not have alot of information to share, but due to the condition and originality of mine I'd be happy to take any reference pictures I can for you.

Seems to be a few Bellboys coming back to life here lately, networking with others on similar projects can be most helpful. Please feel free to start a thread on your project and feel free to ask questions - great bunch of folks here always glad to offer assistance.
