I have a '57 Lonestar Malibu (aluminum, 14-foot I believe) which has been handed-down from my father to me. Except for freshwater lake trips in West Texas and New Mexico, it has been stored in a boathouse or garage its entire life. It is in near-new condition and runs great.
I take it to the lake once or twice every couple of years. My brother and I learned to ski behind it as well as my wife and kids. It is yellow/white and has the original Johnson Gold Javelin 35HP engine with electric start. My father and his brothers made a home-made trailer for it. The only work that has been done to it is the seat upholstery replaced when the original cracked from age. We tried to match the original as close as possible. I will send pictures as soon as I can take a couple and upload them.
My question is: If a person wanted to sell a boat like this, does anyone have a rough idea (or WAG) what it is worth? Thanks.
