Looks like a Flat bottom, that someone turned into a jetboat. What is the Vin say? May give a hint to what the make is on the hull.

PMP makes pontoons out of Florida, and started in 2007. I don't think yours was made by the pontoons company.
There was a way to find out who had the manufacturers hin initials prior to the current owners. If that makes sense. I just couldn't find it.
The round transom hole for the jet bowl reminds me of a superjet. Who made the superjet, Hondo? Sanger? I can't remember.
Regardless, looks like a cool project. What are your plans? Big horsepower? Mild cruiser? Yard art?

The swoop on the bottom side of the dash reminds me of a Hallett v drive.

The angled area just forward of the transom reminds me of early Eliminator jet boats.

Since it has a hin, it's newer than 72 or 73.

Does it have any strakes?
