No, they are not related. Bob Denver was born Robert Denver on January 9, 1935 in New Rochelle, NY. John Denver's birth name was Henry John Deutchendorf, and he was born December 31, 1943 in Roswell, NM. John did not sing the theme song to Gilligan's Island.
He is in his 20s during the show. However, in Meet the Meteor, it is suggested that if Gilligan had aged 50 years, he would have been 72; thus, his age in 1966 would have been 22, suggesting he was born in 1944 and making him 18 when joined at Navy and met the Skipper and 22 when he landed on the island in 1966.
The show was filmed at the CBS Radford Studios complex in Studio City, Los Angeles. The same stage was later used for The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Roseanne, the latter of which featured a daydream parodying Gilligan's Island in one episode. The lagoon was drained and used as a parking lot during the show's off-season.
