The family returned Year after Year unlike I left home to Join the Army in 1976, but the family minus me kept visiting. If you and the rest of your party enjoy it as much as we did it will be the first of many boat trips. Tony in Essex.

      Quote. "Which would you prefer?" The broads every time. When the bug bites, the cost is irrelevant. My wife and I have travelled from Australia to go on the broads ten times. There is no comparison between a boating holiday on the broads and a European hotel.

    What a delightful holiday vlog. Thanks! Nooo! Don’t do the summer, it’s madly busy, and expensive if you are hiring. Just bring wellies with you. So far this year we’ve had trips in January and the last fortnight of March. The January trip had high water levels too. Out of season is wonderfully quiet. I’m currently having withdrawal symptoms after our March break, and can’t wait for our next trip in June. And no, we aren’t rolling in money to be able to afford so many hires, we have a share in a syndicate boat. 😊 As someone else has already commented, it would have been helpful if you had been warned to check the weed filters. An overheating engine is the last thing you need chugging up from Great Yarmouth.

It was a bit of a boozy affair - but even at that silly age - you couldn't help but fall in love with the scenery and the relaxing atmosphere of the area. Norwich is also one of the most beautiful cities in the UK. Crossing Bredon Water is the closet you get to taking out the sea us Landlubbers can enjoy without the fear of sea sickness. Great video

    You were there the same week we were aboard our boat Lightning. I was wading through 8" of water unplugging our 240v hook up, good fun, but not as much fun as 10 years ago, when i had to do the same in nearly 2ft of water. Good to see you had a great week, but one question, have you ever considered buying a share in one of the syndicate boats?. You will find that once you`ve paid out for the initial share price, the annual maintainance and running costs are cheaper than hiring. Then, if you decide you`ve had enough, sell your share. If you`d like to know more, please let me know.
