VetChugger Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Not least Normans as I do know there are quite a few on the Broads! But what about Moores and Ernest Collins? Both major yards and builders? Trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VetChugger Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 That's fair comment and I appreciate it being an obvious interested party! But Moores and Ernest Collins have nothing as far as I know. Trevor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boaters Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Hi Jonzo, could you maybe group traditional Broads built boats in one section ,maybe headed by several of the well known ones mentioned,as they all have much in common and are many in number ? With like minded owners in their quest to preserve and promote them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockham Admiral Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 It can be done, Diane, quite easily... but I wonder what other members think? May we have a few suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boaters Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Good idea we had some good members ,one from Australia who boats the summer in France and surrounding waterways and topics that could be of interest and benefit to all. members .Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I see that a Hampton Owners area has been added. Thinking of something that was said about not wishing to overlap anything that already exists, there is actually quite an active Hampton Owners Club website at http://hamptonsafaribc.webplus.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I see that a Hampton Owners area has been added. Thinking of something that was said about not wishing to overlap anything that already exists, there is actually quite an active Hampton Owners Club website at http://hamptonsafaribc.webplus.net/ Hi Strowager Before we created a Safari section on the old site I did contact them, as they didn't have a forum section but the site did seem well used, to see if they would be interested or even link through from their site to the forum (a bit like the Bounty one does). They were quite happy about it and did link on their news feed I think at the time, but I don't think participation got past one thread, but it is a marque that has a lot of owners and some affection too I think Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 but it is a marque that has a lot of owners and some affection too I think Yes indeed Dan, probably the most numerous type of ex-hire cruisers centred on the Broads. Around 250 built and most of them seem to be still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 A 27ft seagoing dinghy, Matt??? You'd need a mooring area all to yourself! :naughty: Feet? Feet? 2.7 metres-welcome to the modern era! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
