Canoe

"We hired Prelude 2 for a week the party comprised two primary school children, and five adults. Space on the boat was excellent, handling was exceptional. We were able to cruise to Norwich stopping of at Chedgrave on the return to the Northern Broads. Prelude2 was an easy boat to moor although the size meant that it was necessary to look for suitably large mooring locations. The galley facilities were deceptively large and we were able to cook a Sunday roast with ease. The staff at Brinks boatyard were helpful on both our arrival and departure. A brilliant holiday was enjoyed by all."

"A serene and peaceful holiday, shame about the cold easterly wind that blew across the broads for the first few days. The staff at Barnes were very welcoming and helpful. The handover and handling instruction was professional and afterwards I felt confident to pilot the 44ft craft. Lullaby 2 is a nice spacious craft with sleeping for 8. A couple of the cabins were very tight so I would recommend that you should only have a max of 6 in your party. My only gripe is that the steering position in the saloon was not comfortable for long periods. This was due to the fact that the seating was like a high bar stool without foot spells, after 15 minutes the backs of your legs tended to ache. This was not our first holiday on the Broads, the previous one was 19 years ago, and a lot has changed. The boats are easier to handle but there are less moorings available. You really need to make an itinery and stick to it. All in all a really enjoyable holiday. Thank you to all at Barnes Brinkcraft."
