Broads01 Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 46 minutes ago, Captain said: The Bounty 37 possibly Woods also due to the roof lights Soaring light ex Corsair cruisers maybe I agree. The navy blue stripe around the top of the hull is a Woods thing. I can't recall any other Bounty 37s that had the large sliding roof with the roof lights.

Captain Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Indeed looks like one of the 6 Golden Lights built mid/late 60s atleast 3 of which remain on the Broads I believe. Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil I know of at least 4 of the six built this makes 5 which is not bad for a 60’s wooden boat. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnoar Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 The Golden Lights are survivors it seems, I wonder if both those and the Crown of Light were all made of treated timber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of Kingfishers sisters? A £9.99 starting price ... the first bidder must have been hopeful for a real bargain ! So own up - anyone admit to bidding on this one ?

Ex Jaguar, you can just about make it out on the back by the bike. I said one for UncleMike because before he was called UncleMike, he was called Chameleon after he's boat and before that he was called Jaguar after a boat he hired often from Alphacraft. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I spotted this on eBay, not a million miles from the Broads. It was formerly Rio 4 at Horning Pleasurecraft and in the Thames fleet before that. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Norfolk-broads-cruiser-boat-and-possible-liveaboard-mooring-/175157142486?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it is not so bad on these as it would be on others as the floor goes in first with bulkheads afterwards plus no sliding roof helps. Apologises if Im wrong.

I guess you can turn notifications like that off in your account settings somewhere. I used to get an annoying email from Hoseasons every time I browsed their website saying "Is there anything we can help you with?" I felt like replying saying "No, of I want your help I'll ask for it." I think I managed to turn them off or unsubscribe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broads01 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I took this in Bristol today. If anybody can identify what it was on its former life I'll be impressed (I've no idea myself). The colour scheme is... individual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclemike Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 on ebay, go into account/account preferences/communication preferences, scroll to bottom of page, where it says marketing communications/subscriptions click edit and remove ticks from boxes simples 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velo500 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 It is the seller who asks Ebay to send offers and seller does not know your email address. Having been a business seller on Ebay for 16 years i send them occasionally for items that are hard to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
