Boaters Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 News of Richardsons taking over Fineway, a yard in Hoveton,better known to boaters as Wroxham with a day boat base, building a new range of boats which sound interesting offering more facilities for the hirers.http://www.edp24.co.uk/news/broads_biggest_operator_expands_into_hoveton_1_3997387 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshman Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I think this news has been around for some time but good to see more money being invested by the leading yards - continual investment is necessary and these guys, and a few others, continue to commit new funds. Well done Clive and the others 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boaters Posted March 19, 2015 Author Share Posted March 19, 2015 So many day boats available in Wroxham ,I am not aware of many in Horning apart from Boulters ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Ricko Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 JB boats in Horning do day boats, there are also day boats from Southgates.. Fineway have the lowest priced, best turned out boats in Wroxham 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I'll second that. They also hire in winter (or used to). Had heating too We stayed in an apartment a few years ago and hired a dayboat from Fineway pretty much every day. Excellent service too from Steve, not sure if he's still involved.

C.Ricko Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Steve is still across the river,, he has sold it but is still happy to point us in the right direction if we need it. They ran a superb operation and Paul is committed to carrying on where Steve and Debbie left off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawsOrca Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 We have only ever hired a dayboat (in wroxham) from Fineways as their base looks very neat and tidy and as do the boats... Good luck to all involved. I'm sure we will grab a day boat from them sometime this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
