Partners wanted .. to share our wonderful barge

Our beautiful 25m Dutch barge "The Fairhaven" is available for 1/2 share or rental now.

As family/work/finance/visa issues restrict us to 90 days each year, we are actively seeking a partner to share our barge for the other 90-120 days of a season. We have had partners for the last 8 years and find it works well. We are seeking either full ownership of a half share, or a rental arrangement. We are however prepared to consider just a rental for 1 month or more.
