It was ours once upon a time and we loved her. Lots of history. Very unique little yacht. I now live in Florida or I would buy her back in an instant! Only four days left. I believe she is still at Campland On The Bay in Mission Bay, San Diego. Sadly neglected since we had to sell her but very saveable. There is info. on Brave Heart in these forums. Contact me I can be of any assistance.

We are reluctantly listing our Ariel for sale. She has a transferable  slip at Campland on the Bay Marina in Mission Bay, San Diego,  California. I have no trailer. We had to move to Indiana Thought we were  coming right back. Now we find we are stuck here for a while longer and  need to find a new home for Brave Heart. Single cyl. Volvo in pieces  not working. We use a 4 hp. outboard in the well. Sails are OK, not  great but they work. Bottom is cleaned once a mo. or so. Needs bottom  paint but it's clean. Dark blue paint over light blue topsides is coming  off all along the waterline. Varnish is almost all gone. Decks all seem  solid. There are some old pics. and a little history on this website at      http://www.pearsonariel.org/discussion/showthread.php?531-BRAVE-HEART&highlight=brave+heart   or click the link   http://www.pearsonariel.org/discussion/showthread.php?531-BRAVE-HEART&highlight=brave+heart . I'd be happy to answer any questions over the phone. If you contact  me and leave your number I can call you or I'll give you my number. We  are open to any and all offers and would just like to find someone who  would love, appreciate and take care of this unique old Ariel. Rob  Matter, mail to nosleeeep at aol dot com.
