[Change Of Policy At Richardsons]

My father looks forward to getting his Richardson's brochure each year, which he trawls through looking at every possible permutation of boat that would suit his needs as he isn't really much of an online user

This year he mentioned that he hadn't received his brochure, but as we were down in February we decided to call in for one only to be told, brochures are only being sent out on an "if requested" basis.

With the increase in online use I see the sense in this, picked up a brochure for dad and thought nothing more of it.

Then today I read a comment that Richardsons are no longer giving broads maps out to customers, but they are offered for sale at £3 each.

(Please note, this was a comment by a user on a Norfolk Broads Facebook page and is not verified by me)

But if this is the case, it did get me thinking about finances and hope that everything is ok at the biggest hire fleet on the broads 

Both these policy changes, if true make sound financial sense but do offer concerns about the viability, long term of the current hire market 

 

Silver line dont give free map so maybe Richardsons just falling in line with others

Welcome along. Hope you enjoy your holiday in September. We're considering a few days afloat in October and I've been searching for exactly what we want. Looks like it's coming down to two boats of a style that we haven't hired before so ... watch this space, as they say! :)

I had Silver Rhapsody lovely boat great for over the reeds viewing but not good for bridges

Hi Biburybill, welcome to the forum.

Dawn of light looks like a great boat for two, looks like a Bounty 28. Hopefully, you will have a great week.  Any plans where you will go, or just point the bow and see where you end up?.

Hopefully first night Horsey fingers crossed 😊

[Dawn Of Light]

Anyone got a review of this boat ?Regards Biburybill
