It's hard to offer much besides some platitudes (even more so since I'm not an author), but if you're getting stuck in the drafting stage of writing... Well, you can only really do the best you can for so long before you start to see diminishing returns for your effort. 50+ rewrites and nothing you're satisfied with should probably be a sign that you just need to bite the bullet on whatever you've got and then start writing chapters to build off of. 'Shaky foundations' only really matter if you're actually building something, and the worst-case scenario is that you'll have some external input for the next time you want to rewrite... or when the 'building crumbles,' to keep up the analogy.
Or you could post whatever outline for the story you have here and let people give some insights on what they think you could do? I'm not really sure how averse you'd be to essentially posting spoilers for your own story, even if it was just the bare bones of the story's trajectory, so disregard this suggestion if it's not something you could see yourself doing.
Sidenote: If me not being an actual author means I shouldn't be posting here, I'll remove this comment. orz
