TRANQUILITY IS A SELF MANAGED SHARE BOAT

At 58 feet length, TQ (as we call her) is a steel hull narrow boat built by Colecraft and fitted out by Elton Moss Boatbuilders. Currently based at Aqueduct Marina in Cheshire we're able to cruise some of the most popular waterways in Britain. The Shropshire Union, The Trent and Mersey, The Llangollen Canal, The Four Counties Ring and Cheshire Ring and more.

Our friendly Syndicate decided to go down the Self Management route on 1st March 2012 and so far it has been very successful. Please visit the other pages in this blog to see the new Web Site and if shares are available for sale. (There'll not be many).

More maintenance done today already.

I refitted the magnetic catch to the rear hatch with some longer screws and now the door (hopefully) won't swing open while cruising.

One of the really stupid things about the design of TQ is the siting of the Travel Power unit, or more precicely the switch to control it. Until today we had to open the wardrobe door and inside, on the left is another door which gives access to the rear of the control panel. You had to reach in to the Travel Power unit mounted on the opposite wall to switch it on and off. With a little time and effort the switch is now mounted on the outside of the main panel where it can be easily reached, though less likely to be switched by accident.

New position for the Travel Power switch.
