New boat announced for ABC Show

A new 65ft, 6-berth luxury semi-trad narrowboat for shared ownership has been announced by ABC just ahead of their show this weekend (22nd September).  The new boat, Harmonia, is due for launch in June 2013.  She is being equipped with hydraulic drive, led lights throughout and a self-tracking satellite system.

When I spoke to Edward Helps, MD of ABC Leisure Group, he told me that there was just one share left in Isis (2010) and that all the shares in Maia -launched a year ago - were now sold.  Orders are now being taken for shares in Harmonia and these are priced at £9,750 for an 8% (4 week) share.

ABC staff were being kept very busy at their show talking to interested prospective owners, and Dave Taylor told me that at least four shares had been sold on the day.

Most ABC marinas welcome shared ownership boats, and I have now received the details to put on this site along with other bases.  These extra pages will be available shortly.
