Whilst wandering around the Internet just now, I found these two grand old ladies for sale - I do hope they go to a good home and stay on the Broads. As I came over the Postwick Flyover on Saturday I saw that two of the boats were out of their water.

Hello W-album,

 

Thank you for posting the links.

 

Ideally it would be better if someone could operate these two boats, rather than them being sold for houseboats.

 

Regards

They have been for sale on that website for ages- well over a year, possibly 2.......

Looks like I had missed something!

They do however look like different pictures to when I last looked so they might be different boats. I am sure someone who knows will be along soon!

Those two boats have been for sale for AGES, and AGES.

 

I think the reality is that, though these are fine vessels, the cost of ownership is going to be high.

 

We see these boats regularly through the summer months and they are truly graceful things in the water reaching river speeds with less wash than a racing skiff.

 

Beautiful as they are, it is likley to be very tough finding a new home for them; the length of time on sale confirms this.

 

We hear all kinds of rumours which I won't perpetuate. Let's see what, if anything, happens.
