| Visitors comparing boats managed by the four sponsor companies at the 2014 Boat Share Show |
The event was agreed by the four professional shared ownership management companies who sponsored the 2014 show at their post-event meeting last week. All four companies - ABC Boat Share, BCBM, Carefree Cruising and Ownashare Cruising - agreed that the event was even more successful than they had anticipated - with a total of 36 shares being sold either at the show or as a direct of people visiting it and being able to compare such a range of shared ownership narrowboats.
"Although there are a number of things that can be improved for 2015, the feedback from this year's show has been very positive," said Andrew Cooley after the meeting - at which he agreed to again act as co-ordinator for the 2015 show.
"I think the aim must be to bring the benefits of shared ownership to a wider audience and to develop a show that will be as attractive to existing owners as it is to prospective ones."
The four companies also agreed to hold a one day autumn event each year. The 2014 Autumn Boat Share Event will be on Saturday 6th September. The venue is yet to be announced, but it will be further north on one of the popular midlands canals.
