Relayer Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Although we live in Norfolk, we have never really used the Broads as much as we should, other than a few day boats over the years and a weeks holiday back in the early 80's. Things are about to change. A weeks boys ( OK, we are all in our 50's. 3 of us ) only holiday in September which will consist of meandering on the water, a few glasses of wine, a little fishing possibly and some great meals in some great pubs hopefully. And.... I'm looking to buy a boat, but they are selling so quickly that is proving harder than expected. Looking forward to catching up with all on here with whatever questions may arise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sort of boat and budget may we ask, sometimes people hear of boats being sold before they go to brokers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budget wise.... anywhere between 10 and 25k as I'm happy to look at a project. 4 Berth min, decent outside space, diesel ideally but not really put off by petrol. Have looked at Freeman/Seamaster style and more modern sporty! cruisers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauriceMynah Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I know of an Elysian Bounty for sale. A bit of a cleaning project, new canopy would do it well as would a new fridge, but it's right at the bottom of your budget Some have sold from the NYA for 16k. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
