If you're still on the hunt for a Lonestar Cruiseliner, I've got one that I just can't get around to restoring. It's a real beauty as far as lines and the hull is in really good shape and even has nice paint. The interior needs gutted, and it's been converted to I/O. I bought it as a project...

Breaks my heart, but I’ve just not been able to get the family behind getting around to fixing up this old gem. It’s a 1958 Lonestar Cruiseliner aluminum cuddy cabin. Has a 120 Mercruiser inboard/outboard. I bought this boat 7 years ago as a project and haven’t been able to get to it. I was...

No love for the fins of the late 50's, huh?! Have a 58 waiting on my attention some day - I appreciate your pictures and comments on the stringers. Good knowledge to tuck away for the future. Just curious - with those twin 70's what speeds were you seeing and how did it handle with that...

PSG-1 - thanks for the thoughts and insights. I had not thought much about the deflection issue and bearing wear. That would obviously be harder to overcome without some beefier transfer sytem that took that load for the pump shaft, so it might start to get unruly! I wasn't even going to...

I know this thread is a little old, but hoping PSG-1 is still tracking... PSG-1 - Simply an awesome job. I have a boat that I want to take down a similar path, except that I want to look at the dual-jet setup that someone has recommended. So I'd like to get your thoughts. My boat is a 1958...
