Ariel #121

[tha3rdman]

Here in Havre de Grace, MD we had our daughter down at the park while she was out playing I was admiring the boats in the marina from afar, and our large portlights caught my eye and warrented a closer look.

In the marina sits Hull #121 Betsy (N.Y.) Reg: MD 6436 BL. I tooks some pictures but i'm not posting them (taken with camera phone, I'll get some real pictures soon)

I looked but couldn't find a thread for 121, slip this under it if one exists, thanks.

Our records show her as SORTILEGE owned by Frank Wille of Hummelstown, PA.

what's going on with the portside deck is that a re-core in progress??

Looks like it has an inboard too. Wonder if that was the one posted from PA a little while ago?

[tha3rdman]

Port and Stbd, had what looked like prefab non skids place over top of a recore job (indeed not in progress, rather finished). I'm curious what engine it has inboard, it has the vents in the OB well like is was orginially OB and the control panel looks like the one that comes with the diesels. The primary winches look to be orginals, and the rigging looks recent (more recent then #97's)

As an update:

This girl has been hauled and I fear is indanger of becoming a fence boat :eek: , she was pulled as the Water Steet Marina in Havre de Grace, and has been on the hard since the spring at least.
