Matthew12 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Hello you may have seen a couple of posts I thought I would share a backstory to my boating it first started when we hired out a day boat on the river great ouse and then i found out about the captain's blog on youtube I have been looking at most of his vlogs we have now been day boating for 6. We have decided that we want to now have a 3 night break on the norfolk as I have never slept on a river cruiser we have never been boating on the broads. Over my time on here I've been looking at posts about old boatyards and have looked on the boat searcher and have used that to see what kind of boats they used. I would like to say that everybody on here has been really nice and kind so I would like thank you for such a warm welcone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew12 Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 Do any of you suggest a boat for 3 nights on July 24-27 mainly looking at northern broads at as a budget option depending on what one in the family thinks I might be going solo with the child so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendel Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Welcome, I would suggest Tumbleholm or Janet from Marthams, I would have recommended Jayne as well, but I should be aboard her that week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grendel Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Yes, they allow solo hire, so 1 adult 1 child should be fine, they are a very helpful yard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
