Vendors comments
This is a unique opportunity to part own a super Dutch Barge on the River Thames. The syndicate is well run and very helpful and friendly. The marina is very secure and has a chandlery, laundrette, additional shower/toilet facilities, ample parking and a "bistro" All you need if you just stay on the moorings for a week!
(Footnote from Philip, boatshare. I spent a week on Dorchester soon after she was built, she is a joy.)
