Yes I found a Capri 25 mast. It should work. But now that the a
Auburn Tigers are playing and football season is here, I've gotten distracted. I'll get back soon. Thanks for the support.

I picked up a black capri 25 mast and boom. Its about 6" shorter than the Ariel mast. Thanks to carl291 for the leads. Captain Michael Duling at Starboard Cove Marina in Flowers Branch on lake Lanier north of Atlanta provided great help in getting it loaded on the trailer. Atlanta traffic is always aggressive. Having a 20' trailer and 5' of mast sticking out was a lot of fun.

ariel 162 is no longer for sale. she will be refurbished. I'll contact you about the hatch and the lazarette.

what is t lackeys web sight? I'm going to lake lanier Thurs to pick up a capri 25 mast, boom and rigging to see if it will work on my ariel. Pulling the engine will have to wait. Of course its not going anywhere.

once again thanks

Thanks to Carl291 Ive found a capri 25 mast, boom and rigging. Mariel is off the selling block.

My boat was under salt water after hurricane ivan. It then sat on the hard for over 6 months. The motor won't budge. My mechanic says it needs to be overhauled. I'm assuming it will have to be pulled from the boat. Is it fixable?

How difficult is it to pull an A4 out of an Ariel?

Thanks, sent you a pm for his number

I'm putting 162 up for sale. Its a project boat for someone with the time and patience. I hope there's someone close who can take over this restorarion.

I'm no longer looking for the lazarette et al. I've decided the sell or piece out Mariel 162. My heart is heavy. C'est le vie. Damn Ivan.

Thanks Carl

The man with the Tartan mast now wants 1000 bucks for it. Think I'll keep looking.

Looking for lazarette hatch and entry way hatch. Also need a mast.

What do I need to look for if I've found a salvaged mast from a boat similar in size to the ariel. How close does the salvaged mast have to be in size to the original ariel mast? Any idea what a fair price would be for the mast?
