[QUOTE="Dodgeboy49, post: 503128, member: 34484"] I went over to the classic boat library and looked at the info there; the Lone Star does look very similar in many respects, but I'm not seeing anything there with the ribbed sides (which doesn't mean much, sometimes details don't make it into brochures). If I don't find out what the boat is before winter, I might have to sit down at that site and do some in-depth exploring while it's too cold to be outside. Another thing that this boat has which I have not noticed on others' boats is a fairly prominent keel. It is about 2" tall and is a folded V-shape riveted to the bottom of the boat. I could be wrong, but it seems like most other boats I've looked at had a much shallower, more rounded keel. At the bow, the keel is capped with a small piece of aluminum C-channel which wraps around the bow and becomes the grab handle at the top. [/QUOTE]
