Just joined NBN and contributed to a thread with photos of my newly-wed parent boating in Sable 1953/54.
Steam train up to Norfolk as a young child from a council flat estate in Brixton was quite a change. Early 1960s boats I recall were Radiant Sun, Barsac, Star Glory, then various blander glass fibre boats. I moved up to Norfolk myself in 1986 and acquired a 19ft small cruiser moored at Horning a few years ago. The Broads are still magic. Chris (Photo Star Glory with me top deck)
Noticed the boat “Sable” was mentioned in this thread. My newly wed parents hired the boat 1953 or 54 and I attach photos. Not sure where the outside photo taken? Chris
