What a windy time we have had in the last 6 months !
Boating is a wonderful distress but wind can cause even the most calm person to become unsettled.
Crabbing along the canal is not the type of recreation anyone would choose.
Mooring up with a lovely warm fire and a good book is the best type of winter cruising on a windy day!

Welcome to 2018 and Ownashare who offer personal care for you and your shared boat.
Currently I have some excellent shares for sale on varied styles of boats.
It is a perfect time to take a look at our shares for sale during this month when all of our boats are currently in for their winter maintenance.
If I can assist you during your planning of a purchase of a share please ring Linda on 07800902323

Several of our shared boats will be enjoying the quietness of the canals this Christmas and New Year.
I wish you all a very peaceful time.

Ownashare wishes all of her customers and friends a very Happy Christmas and a wonderful cruising season in 2018

What a long autumn with some tree bare of leaves and other hanging on to green leaves.
Please check your smoke and Co 2 alarms now we are lighting stoves and heating.
Do not be tempted to cover your fresh air vents they are their to save your life if the cabin fills with Co2 or gas.
The old trick of a blanket over your legs maybe strange in todays centrally heated boxes but it is a wonderfully cosy way to enjoy the evening.

Here comes November and the stoppage season.
Now comes the tricky time of year when you need to keep a very close eye on the CRT website for stoppages or risk ending up stuck on a section of canal you had not intended to stay on!
The cruising can be wonderful on near empty canals with gorgeous autumn sun shine.
Sales have been very brisk and my stock of shares has been depleting.
If you are planning to purchase a share in a narrow boat do not leave it or you may miss a bargain.

Here we are looking out at the wonderful Autumn colours.
Boating allows us to fully appreciate the changing of the seasons and enables us to be in tune with nature.
As the evenings lengthen we value to warmth of a solid fuel stoves.
Enquiries for our boat shares have suddenly taken off.
This is a perfect time to secure your boat share and meet the owners at the AGM.
If you are looking to buy a share please take a look at our shares for sale pages and find your perfect holiday boat.

The autumn leaves are becoming ever more vibrant and the evenings longer.
We are all needing our stoves and heating on and it is time to check those Co2 and smoke alarms.
Every year there are tales of loss and heartbreak when a functioning alarm could have been a life saver.
Enjoy the wonder of autumn

At the end of August and the countryside is already starting to show signs of Autumn.
This is a fabulous time to cruise, the evenings can be warm and the sunsets amazing.
The opportunity to forage can increase your larder.
Thoughts of evenings reading in front of a roaring fire which produce that overwhelming feeling of relaxation after the busy summer adventures.

All of the boats are busy providing their owners with relaxing holidays.
Ownashare are preparing for the next boat show at Overwater Marina, Nantwich CW5 8AY.
This show which takes place during the RNLI festival features all the major shared ownership companies.
If you are arriving before 11am breakfast will be being served in the cafe to set you up for a wonderful boaty day.
