More sort options on shares list

The list of currently available shares on this site has been modified to give additional sort options on half shares and shares with school holiday options.

Half shares are indicated (by a 'Yes' in the Half share column) where a share is half the normal 1/12th - 1/10th or 8%, that is 1/24th - 1/20th or 4%.

School holiday shares are marked when the share on offer either currently has a school holiday preference or where one is available.

The list can now be sorted on any of these details:

  • Boat name
  • Price
  • Half share
  • School holiday share
  • Length
  • Layout
  • Stern type
  • Number of berths
  • Launch date (when new)
  • Management and where the boat is offered 
  • Whether pets are allowed
  • Whether smoking is allowed in the boat

The search facility now includes:

  • Minimum price
  • Maximum price
  • Minimum length
  • Maximum length
  • Whether the saloon or the main bedroom is nearest to the bow
  • What type of stern 
  • Minimum number of berths
  • Maximum number of berths
  • Minimum age
  • Maximum age
  • Whether pets are allowed
  • Whether smoking is allowed in the boat 
The shares list is updated on most days to reflect the latest changes in shares available.   To compile the list, we monitor the websites of BCBM, boatshare.co.uk, Carefree Cruising, J D Boat Services and Ownashare

Our list is for information only - boatshare4u.co.uk does not sell shares.

National Boat Share Show has new venue and date

This year's National Boat Share Show will have a new location and a new date.

The Show will take place at Dunchurch Pools Marina on Saturday and Sunday 4th & 5th May.  The Marina is on the North Oxford Canal, not far from Braunston Junction.  The full address is Dunchurch Pools Marina, Onley, Rugby CV23 8AN.

This year's event is being organised by the four shared ownership management companies - BCBM, Carefree Cruising, J D Boat Services and Ownashare.  

Although I'm no longer involved in the organisation of the Show, I have agreed to be the contact point for general information about the Show and Show details will appear on this site - so my details and this site will appear on advertisements for the Show. We have started a list of boats that will be on view and will add further ones when we  hear about them.
 
Pippa and I will also be manning the Welcome Desk at the Show as in previous years.
