Waterlily is now with her new owners

It was a happy and sad day today as we completed the sale on Waterlily. We met her new owners at Great Haywood and completed the paperwork. So Waterlily is going on more exciting journeys with Alan and Sarah, (nice to meet you both) and their two children. It very much reminded us of our early holidays and the excitement and trepidation of taking the boat out onto the canals.

We took ownership of Waterlily in July 2008 and passed her on March 2013.

I will keep this blog open but without posts now for the record and continue to have years printed off for my records for the future.

Thank you for all of your help in selling her and for the comments and interest over the years we have owned her. We wish Alan and Sarah all the very best for their future cruises.

Deposit received, buyer pulls out

A rather hectic day today with my University hosting stargazing live  - part way through the preparations I recieved a call from Great Haywood with an offer on Waterlily which we accepted. So now the deposit has been paid a survey is pending.

Thanks for those bloggers who promoted the sale.

Happy and sad, but overall pleased we will be passing on a lovely boat and whoever is the buyer will have so much joy from her.

After a 14 hour day I really need sleep !

Edited to say the buyer has pulled out because of health reasons !
