Thanks everyone admans girl has found it. I am trying to find out some of its history as it looks like a horizon 35 but isn’t ? Roy

Thanks the name of the boat was caroline from potter and haylett.

Hi has any body got a holiday brouchre from 1972 with potter and haylett I am trying find find out some info on a boat that was in their fleet then. Pictures would be good. Thanks

Am I right in thinking the dual steer craft so popular now a days on the broads are not that new if I remember top craft of Oulton broad converted a Caribbean to dual steer with a sun deck ? Can anybody remember these ?

I think I would have a yard at Ludham my yard would specialise in small boats for couples maybe a fleet of Hampton safaris with names relating to wildlife.

Where would your yard be ? What boats would make up your fleet? the names of your boats and business?

Hi just sitting in my house wondering what happened to j153 dunnley of beccles it was mired at Brundall but always looked very sory for its self. Just wondering if it’s still there or maybe it’s been modernised ?

I’d love to have the money to restore her and the skills. Lets hope somebody does and returns her back to the broads

Thank you for the information. My involvement with this old lady is quite small I am afraid we used to own the plot of land next to but one to where she was kept. I as a child liked old woodies and would often go round to see the owners when they were down I can remember her being used but later life she was used as a house boat and then not used at all. My dad sold the plot of land about 20 years ago and I have often wondered what has happened to her. It’s nice to know she may well have another inings. I am afraid my woodwork skills are not up to much. Roy

Hi this is a question for Janet Alan / Anne I was reading a old forum post from 2016 about you raising a sunken boat a Leo Robinson eagle class. I think this looks like a old boat I used to know ( rich fields) could you be so kind to let me know how the restoration is going if going at all. Thanks Roy

Thank you that’s really helpful.

Thank you that’s very kind. I don’t mind one that needs some cosmetic work undertaken. Thanks again

Thank you everybody for your information that’s very helpful.

Could somebody give me the rough years cost of owning a Hampton 25 mk2. i have always wanted one just seeing if I can afford to keep one. 🤣 thanks

If any bridges are replaced it need to be the 2 at Yarmouth ( Vauxhall and the other one). If these were raised it would make Yarmouth safer and open up the whole network?

Thank you for the picture it’s such a shame to her in that condition where abouts was the picture taken? As much as I would like to see her on the water again I think that’s far beyond my diy skills Roy

Hi everyone I am curious to know what happened to broads cruiser F 77 ( the wolf gang) it is a early horizon 35 with wooden top sides. This boat was our neighbours at Brundall Hoboroughs Dyke when they gave up boating it just vanished. Last seen in early 2000s. Thanks
