“Ownashare Cruising Ltd have recently invited their customers to elect a new Customer Representative who, as part of the role, will take a seat on the Company Board.

The process was necessary as the previous Representative, Tony Philpott, stepped down in August having served since 2011, and his replacement is named as David Chinn.

‘We are sincerely grateful to Tony for his invaluable work in this role over the last three years,’ says Ownashare MD Phil Capp. ‘We now welcome aboard David, who will I’m sure will be very successful in performing this unique and important function. The creation of this role underlines our commitment to customer service levels and transparency. Our owners derive great comfort from knowing that they are fully represented at the highest level of the Company.’ “

We look forward to seeing you at your AGM, some of which have been held already. Enjoy your autumn cruises, and remember those pesky leaves – if your progress seems impeded give your engine a quick run in reverse before you stop and venture down the weed hatch. Very often this will clear the problem, and don’t be surprised if you have to repeat the exercise quite frequently if you are a wooded cutting. Nature’s way of slowing you down at this time of year!
Happy cruising
