What should I look for when buying a used Ariel 26 Pearson?
Before paying a deposit, verify hull and deck integrity (soft spots, delamination), check the standing rigging age (most insurers require replacement every 10–15 years), inspect the engine hours and service history, and confirm the sails have usable life left. A pre-purchase survey by a SAMS or NAMS-accredited surveyor is the single best $500–$900 you will spend.
