General comments by vendor
Happy Days is the third share boat we have owned and we have had some wonderful holidays afloat.
We shall now be looking for a suitable narrowboat with school holiday shares available.
The boat is due for a bare metal repaint during the winter of 23/24 and this will be fully funded from reserves.
In addition, there will still be sufficient contingency within the boat's bank account to cover any unexpected major expense.
