Boat information needed?

I understand this is a forum for engines, but I don't know where to go for help except here. Suggestions would be appreciated.
I have purchased what I think are most of the parts I need to get my 69 Chrysler 105 HP motor up and running (I'll do the carbs last as I hope to fix the other issues first) one thing I could use is an owners manual for a Chrysler 15 foot boat. It sure it seems silly to most, but this is the first boat I've ever owned and I don't exactly know what and where everything is supposed to be on and in the boat. I have a fair idea what is what for the major installations, motor control, steering, battery to motor wiring, but I do seem to have a small pump? in the stern well that I think might be a fuel pump?, bilge pump, or?, and I believe that the initial wiring has been somewhat less than perfectly maintained. I would like to know what the round metal fitting in the bow near the windshield is, a horn base?, light base?, silly I know but here I sit doing social distancing and unable to go to my local shops for help. I have been unable to locate photo's of my exact model on the web, some show a horn in the middle of the bow area, some show it mounted to the port side, (where I have about a .75 inch hole in the deck). I hope everyone is safe as my wife and I are here in Nampa Idaho.
 
Just so everyone knows, I am going to attempt to rebuild this boat and engine into as original condition as I can make it. I was overseas in 69 and it is kind of a present to myself that I'm taking on this project. Thank you for any help that can be shared with me.

Ebay for old Books.
Look up antique outboard salvage.
The Chrysler was a big hit in the midwest and there are still a lot of them being used.
I saw them in Michigan and still with the OEM outboards.

Pictures, lots of pics always help with the answers we can give.

There shouldn't be a fuel pump mounted outside the motor itself, again PICTURES, Lots of PICTURES!!!
The newer cameras the pics might need to be resized.
