Mod hat very much off!
I rarely get involved in heated discussions, I like to read and digest all replies. However, on behalf of us hirers I think work should be done so we get to see the wonderous world of Hickling Broad, without the additional expense of hiring a day boat!
On a hypothetical question, I think. What IF a boatyard through modern technology designed many cruisers that could go through the PH Bridge, would they be banned because it only suited others who wish a permenant place of tranquility.
I, like Neil, remember going up to Hickling, Horseymere and West Sommerton on boats of different heights and widths in the 70's and 80's and yes the 90's also. I have only been through once since the Millenium it was a two berth named Sabre Princess. Are we only suppose to drive to the PB inn by car, the same for Martham Kings Arms? or use a dayboat, which for me now is a no no. It was me who said earlier the Broads are for ALL, but, having read many replies, that thought is disappearing very quickly! Rant over...for now.
