Longjohn

Hi, your pretty much guaranteed to bag up with Skimmers at Potter Heigham and you can top up on bait from the tackle shop, and provisions at Lathams.

Hi all, it's looking like Sparkling Horizon as the boat for our weekend. Last chance for any comments on alternatives, or indeed positive comments about her...the boat not Mrs Longjohn!

Hi all, really appreciate the comments. Swan Roamer is looking favourite, but I'll need Richardson to agree to a Friday not Saturday start. Hopefully a confirmed out of season booking will persuade them. Otherwise Turquoise Emblem looks good (although more expensive) option! Keep the comments and advice coming please.

Hi, first time post as a new member to the forum! Mrs Longjohn is allowing me to celebrate my birthday by hiring a boat in mid-March for a short break (Friday to Monday) but strictly on the condition that the boat is toasty! I've seen that the majority of hire boats are warm air, with a handful having Rad's. I'm seeking advice from the great and the good on the forum as to what the relative merits are and /or any specific recommendations. We are reasonably well experienced Broads boaters and probably looking for a northern broads base, with a higher spec bath tub as I want the option to get under Wroxham and also up to Dilham; although having not ventured south before if there are any southern recommendations happy to consider those as well (Brooms if their open that time of year?)
