Nice looking float!
Hope you don't mind me saying that what you have there is a Rogers 'Super Cyclone' & not a 'Bonneville'. I believe the 'SC' & 'Bonneville' have essentially the same hull design, & are the same length (17'-10"). Main difference being the 'SC' has a flat deck with the Bonnie having a bubble deck. Either way, Rogers are great boats.
If you have any change lying around, a Place Diverter would be a wise addition to the boat. A manual setup won't set you back too far & is a pretty easy install….. :D

I'm going to be getting a diverter not sure manual or hydro yet I like the clean floor.. but I'll be on the look out for any used stuff out there
