Winter… Nothing happens in the winter. How wrong could we be!
We own a Jersey 36 motorboat which we keep on the Norfolk Broads. She is a very seaworthy, sturdy vessel, fully equipped for use at sea, and we often cruise along the coast. So far, we’ve travelled as far as St Katharine Docks, London, but we also enjoy using her all over the Broads.
The Norfolk Broads is an amazingly friendly National Park with more than 200km of waterways to explore. In the summer it’s perfect for gentle trips with the family where we enjoy canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding and rowing, along with sailing our elderly Mirror dinghy.
Yes, the Broads are lovely, but in the summer we also have copious amounts of visiting boats and hire craft which come with their own challenges. So, one of my favourite times of the year for the Broads is winter.
