So i joined this forum because I recently acquired a 14' 1970 Lone Star semi-v on craigslist.
I purchased the boat along with the trailer and a 30lb thrust minn kota for $350!! The hull is solid and there are no signs of trouble. But it is in need of a restoration and that is what I plan to do this summer and into next fall if needed. I also acquired, at no cost, a 1951 (or 52) John QD-12 10hp outboard that was just sitting in my grandfathers basement.
From the picture you can see that it is beyond immaculate for being 60+ years old. That is the original and paint and decals. I haven't had time to start it up yet but I am assuming that 20 years of sitting has taken its toll and it could take a while. So thanks in advance for the ideas and advise, and I look forward to keeping you all updated!
