Boat Share Show cancelled
I have just heard the disappointing news that the National Boat Share Show due to be held on 18th & 19th of next month has had to be cancelled due to the precautions being taken over the Covid-19 virus.
Clearly, with restrictions on travel and public gatherings, it would be impossible to continue and to do so would be putting people at unnecessary risk.
Let's hope that the restrictions will have been lifted in time for the Autumn Boat Share Show at Overwater on 12th &13th September - and that we will see you there!

Refreshments at the Boat Share Show
I've just heard that the J18 Burger Van will again be providing refreshments for this year's National Boat Share Show. This is great news as you can be assured of excellent value for money. The full breakfast is strongly recommended if you're going to be 'on duty' on a boat or stand all day.
Shearwater cruising in for Show
The oldest boat so far confirmed as attending the National Boat Share Show at Dunchurch Pools Marina on 18th & 19th April is Shearwater.
Originally built for Ownerships, Shearwater was launched in 1998 - but you would never know from looking at her, as she had a full repaint over the winter of 2014/15. She also had new carpet and furnishings in 2016 and also now boasts a Beta Marine 38 engine.
A 58ft, semi-trad narrowboat, Shearwater has a mid galley. The saloon is nearest the bow, followed by the dinette that converts to a double bed. Nearest the stern is the main bedroom with an en suite toilet, with the bathroom sitting between the galley and the main bedroom. She is managed for her owners by Ownashare Cruising and - like all ex-Ownerships boats, her syndicate uses the list system for choosing weeks on board.
She currently has a full 1/12th share on offer at the reduced price of £995.
