I have two Narrowboat timeshare weeks I might consider selling:
One is for a six berth craft and the other for an eight berth.
Descriptions at:
6 Berth
8 Berth
boats are mored at Mercia Marina nr Burton on Trent
We have owned both for some years now, but with the family growing up usage
has become less, which means that now the weeks are more often rented out
than actually used, the result being that the 6 berth has at least has
completely recovered the purchase costs and now runs into profit, which is a
happy enough turn of events.
Maintenance costs are about £425 a year for either week at the moment,
after which if you book early enough you will be able to book a week at
almost any time of year ( equivalent hire costs for a 6 berth would
typically be about £1000 for a 6 berth or £1200 for an 8 berth in August ).
If you were to purchase a week you are welcome to advertise it on this site
when you don't have a use for it and should over an average of years see a
profit this way, or at least break even on costs.
The alternaive of course for unused weeks is
to exchange your timeshare week for a holiday flat somewhere around the
world, by use of RCI or a similar
service.
I will accept offers around £1500 for the 6 berth and £2500 for the 8 berth
and I am definitely not interested in doing deals with any "Timeshare
disposal companies", these are either useful weeks or profitable weeks backed by a website that has
proven to be well capable of renting them out, when not of other use to us.
The best justification for ownership of course is your own personal use of the weeks.
Buy a week, use it yourself for a few years and sell it on cheaply and you
will have more than justified the expenditure.
