hull thickness
Ariel 338 MAY have similar thickness on the very bottom edge of the keel. I would not bet on it. When the encapsulated keel cavity was drained and filled there was plenty of opportunity to visibly see the thickness of the hull.
The thickness of the hull was never more than 3/8".
In the back of the keel forward of the rudder there may be a too high percentage concentration of polyester to fiberglass for good strength.
An Interphase probe was installed low in the stem requiring a fairly large hole for the sensor. The thickness of the stem was just about the same.
