Hi Davecc You have been visiting the broads as long as I have Carole at Broadland Memories would I am sure appreciate your photographs.I Ray

I have been hireing boats on the broads most years since 1964 recently a week on the southern broads and yesterday a day boat for the day on the upper thurne. Behaviour in general in my opinion is better than fifty years ago speeding is less as are the idiot boaters yes you still get them and always will. The Broads are still a magical place and are enjoyed by so many Ray
