Owners Comments

Our two families have jointly owned O-Jay for the past four years and have enjoyed exploring the Thames together and with friends on many trips up and down river. We are selling O Jay reluctantly as our children are nagging us to get a bigger boat. We have had it regularly serviced and wintered keeping it in a non-tidal marina in Chiswick.

O-Jay has proved to be reliable and efficient and a lot of fun, we have all enjoyed the many family trips on both the tidal and non-tidal sections of the Thames. It is only when you are on the River that you get the best views of all London landmarks like:

'The London Eye'

The Houses of Parliament

The O2

or Greenwich

O Jay has a very large cockpit which provides plenty seating for family and friends to enjoy in good weather and she has comfortable cabin to dive into in the odd London shower! We have easily accomodated the 10 of us frequently.

As petrol is not available on the river Thames O Jay’s Diesel engine not only provides that extra economy but means that filling the tank is merely a matter of taken the Boat to diesel station in Westminster.
