NBS gave notice to quit to all those moored at Willow a couple of months ago.

Yes it will be a good thing but they could add a few Hiring boats there from thier Wrexham base to this lovely part of the Broads

NBS dont do hire boats, they sell boats.

Aren't they part of the Barnes Brinkcraft group, with NBS doing the sales ?

I believe so.

They are part of the same group of companies but run as separate entities

Interestingly, neither NBS or Barnes Brinkcraft seem to be Limited Companies ?

The two brothers are Directors in a number of limited companies. NBS and Barnes Brinkcraft are just trading names.

I think NBS and Barnes Brinkcraft both come under Barnes Marine Units Ltd.

Perhaps they could start hiring some of the Barnes fleet from Brundall, wouldn't that be nice…

It would, but I think it's very unlikely given the lower demand for the Southern rivers and the competition that already exists at Brundall.

Its been tried by others and generally been a failure, simply because demand seems to be lower as oldgregg states. Has that really changed? I doubt it!
