General comments by vendor
A new wheelhouse roof was fitted in June 2023.
We have been an owner for 7 years and it has been a very enjoyable experience and a very cost-effective way of boating in France.
Dorney is well managed by its owners. The syndicate is effective and friendly. There is a social event and an AGM annually in November to elect a management committee (Chair, Treasurer and Secretary) and agree maintenance weeks and a maintenance schedule for the coming year.
Owners are in regular contact by email and Whatsapp groups.
Trip reports are circulated to owners.
