jeffbroadslover Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Has anyone got any information on when BB are likely to have the webcam working again? The last I heard was that they would get it up and working again after the 6 weeks school holiday As it's now half term time where I live I was wondering if the schools around Wroxham were still on Summer Holidays !

CambridgeCabby Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Being the sceptical person that I am I would be highly surprised if it is functioning until after their planning appeal re their new moorings . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddybear Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Brilliant news, especially as I find myself boatless for the next few months but still need my Broads fix So a big thank you to Barnes Brinkcraft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meg Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 Thank goodness for this news, I had a 4 day break on Barnes Omega 23rd of October. The weather was lovely if a little breezy. No more chugs now until May so the webcam is my daily dose of the Broads. Of course if my lottery numbers come up I will be asking for advice on buying a boat, huh some chance hey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbalding1050 Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I thought i might have been the only one looking viewing this camera for a broads fix, remembering past holidays and looking forward to the next, and if your lucky catching glimpse of our next boat!

I think a lot more look at the webcam than will admit it, some even keep a close eye on their own boats! It’s a fine way of getting a ‘Broads fix’.

SwanR Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 There’s a note as well that they are in the process of modifying the views. Not to worry. I’m happy that I can see the NBD Santa Cruise boat moored down by the bridge. :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanessan Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Oh joy, I was hoping it would be sorted soon so we can all get our winter fix. Those of us who need it anyway! Thank you Barnes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meg Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Thank you Barnes, I can now get my broads fix over breakfast each day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High6 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Thanks, BB, that's a much clearer image too. It would be good if you could stop on the centre portion of the marina too, as it used to (so we can sit and admire our boat on rainy days). Ta very much.

DAVIDH Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Just looked at the camera and interestingly, Barnes appear to have added a spotlight to the apparatus. You can see it sweeping around at the same time as the camera so it clearly is attached. It is quite bright and it strikes me that if mooring there you had better have quite thick curtains. The arc of the camera also seems slower so those properties lining the river to the bridge will also get their regular chance to see how well the light works! You can see the light bloom on the image: 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 there is a very good chance it is an IR spotlight, so nothing visible - except to the camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petersjoy Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I've kept looking in daylight hours, not thought to look in the dark as it wasn't good. that is brilliant, more to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I noticed that last night as well David. I had also thought that might be intrusive. Do I dare ask how it could just be visible to the camera Grendel? *Hoping for totally non-technical explanation* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
