| Booking system | The booking chart is issued to owners in July, in priority order, to make bookings for the following year. Owners of “Special Shares” get first priority to book within the summer school holiday period only. The chart is then issued to the other owners in seniority order when they can choose any available three-week block in one year or any available two-week block in the alternate years. An owner moves from the bottom pair to the top pair over a 6-year period. After the annual booking process has been completed owners can request additional weeks from any that might be vacant or can swap allocations by mutual agreement or “sell” them to fellow owners. |
| Priority for school holidays | The boat has two shares designated for school holiday use within the main 6-week summer holiday. The special shareholders pay a premium of 25% on the annual running costs. ((Correct 2023)Only one of these special shares is in use at present so it may be possible to swap the share that is currently being sold for the vacant special share if this is still available.) |
