Answer 4

Lone Star was founded in Grand Prairie Texas in 1945 by brothers Lamar and William Moody.

At the time your boat was built, Standard Steel Works Inc. was the parent company.

It's a long history but ends with, "Chrysler Boat Corporation formed in May, 1965 with the purchase of Lone Star Boats. The Lone Star name is gone, but Chrysler does an admirable job with the boats and has much success on into the late '70s. Marine Division is discontinued in 1979 and outboard division sold to OMC."

Bell Boy boats were founded by the Bellingham Shipyard, owned by Arch Talbot, in 1952.

Bell Boy was purchased by Sabrecraft in 1963, and then Sabrecraft became part of American Marine Industries in 1964.

There have never been any problems with the Bell Boy hulls.
