Charlie may be right, but all that red inside makes me doubts.
The deckhouse haven't the little window on the side.
It should better check the deckhouse and the cockpit and check the portion of the original deck at the bow.
Try to scratch the paint on the sides to find the gray...

That boat is a lot closer but has some definite differences to this boat. This boat had the steering on the right, no bow rails or evidence of them and no windows in the raised section. From the cockpit back it is the same, even the engine hatches look right. The engine hatches were under a bunch of stuff and I couldn't get a good look at them.
The raised portion of the deck was installed with pop rivets and no fiberglass bonding, I am still wondering if that part is original?
I think you are getting closer!
