I looked at your album. The Bowriders have the little shelves on each side like the Seafaris do that start about amidship and run to the transom. The caps have a little square 1-1/2” wide bullworks that run from the windshield back but not as high as the Sceprers have. I don’t see any of that stuff left and I can’t imagine what it would take to get rid of it. Your cap has just a little drip chamfer that runs around the vertical coaming that looks original. The guy that re-did the boat would have needed to build up the area just at the vertical part of the coaming. Look underneath the cap along that edge. If the inside surfaces of the cap rise a little before turning down then it is either an original cap or the guy made a new cap from a mold, which is highly unlikely. If it is an original cap than it must be a very early/prototype center console (CC), which some were I/O’s that would give you the full curved transom. The boat looks good.
I use mine for a freighter. Here’s a picture from 12/29/17 with at least a 1000#’s in it. Four of us rode out to the island with the little 90 making 18 knots at 4,000 - bow up.
