Sundeck Day Boat Hire on the Norfolk Broads

⭐ Best day boat for bigger groups and sunny days

Best for: Large families, friendship groups, celebrations, social boating


Sundeck is built for sociable days on the Norfolk Broads.

With room for up to 9 people and plenty of open seating space, it’s ideal for larger family outings, group get-togethers and relaxed summer days cruising from Wroxham.


Why Groups Choose Sundeck

👍 Plenty of room onboard

Sundeck gives everyone space to spread out comfortably without constantly navigating around bags, coats and cool boxes.

👍 Ideal for group days out

The open layout works particularly well for larger families and friendship groups wanting to spend time together on the water.

👍 Great for sunny weather

Sundeck really comes into its own on warm summer days when everyone wants to enjoy the views and fresh air properly.

👍 Easy boating for beginners

Despite the larger size, Sundeck remains easy to handle and beginner friendly.


Great For

  • Larger family groups
  • Birthday outings
  • Summer boating trips
  • Riverside pub lunches
  • Relaxed days with friends
  • First-time boating groups

Is Sundeck the right boat for you?

✅ Choose Sundeck if:

  • You need space for a larger group
  • You want an open, sociable layout
  • You’re planning a summer day on the water
  • You’d like plenty of seating space
  • You’re organising a relaxed group outing

❌ You may prefer another boat if:

  • You’d prefer quieter electric cruising → try Electra or Sun Charm
  • You want onboard cooking facilities → look at Sunrise or Picnic
  • You’d prefer a smaller family boat → consider Brinklet
  • You’re planning an overnight boating holiday → view our hire cruisers

What’s It Like Onboard?

Sundeck quickly settles into a relaxed group atmosphere.

Someone takes charge of snacks, somebody else starts planning the pub stop, and before long the whole day feels less like a boat hire and more like a floating family gathering.

Which, honestly, is half the appeal.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you can bring a max of 2 dogs with you It’s worth remembering some dogs love being on a boat, but not all. We recommend bringing a dog bed with you. We would recommend the Brinklets for dogs as these are the easiest for them to get on and off.

Yes, we do, via the Broadcaster magazine provided with each hire.

Please see our suggested itinerary here.

There is a speed limit between 3 and 5 mph in this part of the Broads National Park. This is designed to protect the wildlife on the banks from wash caused by boats.

"We have been holidaying on the broads for the last 10 years or so , the last 8 years with barnes brinkcraft, Wroxham is the perfect place to start off a holiday on the. Broads and barnes is for us the best boatyard. Customer service is always 5 stars, the boats are quality and easy to handle . We have hired a variety of sizes of boat from the 2/4 berth encore to a 10 berth melody, depending how many family has come with us. The little touches like a welcome bottle of bubbly and a fantastic hamper for returning customers really make a great start to a holiday on a barnes cruise. We love the broads and barnes do all they can to make sure you're experience on the rivers is the best it can be. We are currently looking forward to our week on the new Chorus 2 in July 2026 and have already booked with barnes for 2027 on chorus3 ."
