[Jochem]

Hello,

i have just bought an old wooden boat and am goimg to restore her to het former glory in my workshop in Southwold harbour (Novoboats). I am trying to find  out what her history is. She is named Fanny Ann and was last registered on the broads in 1991  (B285). She was built in 1912. Thats all i know, any help would be much appreciated.

From the Boats of the Norfolk broads website.  Norfolk.Broads.Org.uk.                                                    
Fanny Ann was originally named Vandalina. It was sold to a private owner in 1967 and was renamed Fanny Ann. It would appear that it was registered on the broads until 2009.
