BroadAmbition Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Heyup, A friend of a friend is after purchasing a woody motor cruiser (Oh, the fool!) Said friend is hands on and is fully aware of the issues connected with being a woody custodian. Anyroadup, if anyone comes across a turn-key woody that still needs work doing, around 30ft + with an asking price of about £30k - ish then please let me know either by PM or these pages. Thanks in advance, Griff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnoar Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Looks like Juliette of Martham restored by Martham circa 1999/2000. I know this boat from that ownership phase and it was very sympathetically upgraded internally, even had the pleasure of using it occasionally during the colder months and it was very comfortable. Of course it needs ongoing maintenance, it’s a wooden boat after all. At that price a buyer will get a lot of pleasure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTR641 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Thanks everyone - keep'm coming! Some lovely boats out there. My chums are signing up to this marvellously informative forum and will be keen to follow the leads that are flowing through from the pool of boating knowledge! :-) Thanks all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericnelson21 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Thank you to everyone who has posted info and links to boats for us to look at, expressed interest in a couple and we are waiting to get some viewing lined up. Hopefully we will see you all out on the Broads sometime in the future. We will get a barrel on board to celebrate the event. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Broom Rob has become available but pricey at 45k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnoar Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 First to see will have bought Juliette I expect at 32k. Was the Judith ‘Judith Windmill’, she seemed to be well looked after, remember a former owner telling me a story about the name but can’t remember the story. Does seem to be some extreme variances in pricing around at the moment, for 45k I would be wanting something bigger but it is a Broom and I guess that adds value, possibly never in hire either perhaps, doesn’t seem that long ago a good one would be 20-25k. I wonder if Speedway Star is still up at Martham, was outside a few years back, hopefully inside now and not boat heaven! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
