Captain Craig
Looks like your Ariel is in above average condition. You found one that was cared for much better than most. Congrats!!!!!!
By the way I will soon have a rudder from my Commander that was built as a replacement to the original rudder. However I am not convinced they are the same on the commander and the Ariel. The one I have has a continuous shaft and I'm converting to inboard electric drive so I need to start all over. I tried using the drawing for the rudder shaft from the manual but things were not coming out correctly so I had to start all over to get what I really wanted. That is why I'm not convinced they are the same. But when I'm done using this one for a template if you want to pay shipping i could send it to you to see if it will work for you.
