Booking
System
A
booking chart for the following calendar year is circulated in agreed
priority order before the owners’ annual meeting (usually held in October),
where the bookings for the next year are confirmed.
Each
owner has a priority for that year, and moves up 1 place one year, 3 places
the following year. Each owner can choose two weeks (preferably as a
fortnight) in the ‘high season’ (April to September inclusive), and one week
in the remainder of the year, ‘low season’.
By
this route, thirty-six weeks are firmly booked before the year begins.
Allowing for time for winter maintenance, the remaining weeks are booked with
priority in reverse order to the current chart, so having last choice
originally, does have its compensations. The booking chart for these
additional weeks is circulated after the owners’ annual meeting.

We bought in to Scherzo in 2016 to give an insight
as to whether or not to purchase our own boat, ill health has now decided that
for us
It is a ?homely? boat having been well cared for.
To appreciate this statement you need to view
Scherzo. However the details on websites
www.narrowboatscherzo.co.uk
http://www.narrowboatscherzo.co.uk/gallery
http://www.narrowboatscherzo.co.uk/about
http://www.narrowboatscherzo.co.uk/
will give you a good flavour.
The website was updated in 2017 and the details have
not materially changed since, except for the appointment of a new boat manager and the move to the Heritage marina on the Macclesfield canal.
