Wow Brent!!  Your photos look very familiar to when I bought hull #399 about seven years ago down here in Florida.  I'm sure that you can see that your Ariel is a diamond in the rough.  Some TLC will make her shine right up.  Good luck!!

I purchased a Nissan 9.8 HP two stroke last year.  This engine fits nicely in the lazerette and is light enough to lift and store in the lazerette also.  A good price and plenty of power too.  Always starts on the first or second pull which is a far cry from my old Evinrude 9.9 which was very unreliable.

Thanks for all the suggestions and input.  Those bronze ones from Defender look like the way to go.

Looking for suggestions on replacing my very cracked and original winch pads.  Has anyone had the honors of making new ones or having them made?  Please let me know !!

Description  


SOUTH COAST WINCH HANDLE
You need a spare!

This beautiful old style winch handle is hard to find, especially in this condition, as it's no longer manufactured. This one is in excellent condition, works perfectly and has an unbelievably good polish, showing little wear on the chrome over bronze, except on the shank. This may be your chance to get a great winch handle at a great price.  Length is 14 1/2" overall, Shank is 1 3/4" wide. Teak handle.

Technical / Replacing Portholes
March 03, 2002, 10:48:57 PM
I need some input from those who have replaced the forward ports and the glass in the main cabin ports.  My two forward portholes are broken, corroded and leaking.  The glass on the four in the main cabin are scratched and I would like to know how to fix.  Any ideas on where to buy replacements would be appreciated.
