Franzipan90 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Been coming to broads on and off for about 20 years since I was a child on hire boats, ranging from a hunters yacht to bigger cruisers. Looking to go again in June with family. Taking my son for the second time hoping that he falls in the love with the place as my husband did when he came the first time with me. Yet to pick our boat for this year yet but we may go for 10 nights instead of our usual 7 making the most of our last year of cheaper holidays as my son starts school on September. Could be interesting with 4 generations and a crazy dog but looking forward to it. Love reading about other people's experiences in the build up to a holiday. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bound2Please Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 A very warm from me and the Wench (some call her Inge)... Our kids went on holidays before school age and during their school days. Now its our grandchildren (youngest 13 oldest 21) who break all they can to come with us on the boat. Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 Welcome along ... when my children were small we could take them out of school for up to two weeks each year if you got written permission, which was not a problem. The current rules must be making it hard for parents to afford holidays now. Took our children on a hire boat when they were about 8 or 9. I think they enjoyed it but they don't show any signs of wanting to join us again now that we have rediscovered the Broads over the last few years. Maybe one day ...!
