CURLEW
[addtoany]

From £0 per night

Curlew was new to our fleet in 2021.Ā  We purchased her from another boatyard.Ā  Ā Previous hirers have found her to be very comfortable and easy to handle.
Ā 
She’s built by Haines Marine a well-known boating manufacturer.Ā  And she still shows her pedigree, with larger than usual cabins and saloonĀ Ā 
Her layout makes her popular with familiesĀ  (You can make the front cabin up as 2 singles or a double bed).Ā  Ā 
Ā 
Both cabins are ensuite. Rare in one of our No Frills boats.Ā  Ā 
Ā 
No need to worry about what the British weather throws at you on this boat. Brinks Curlews’ dual steering position gives you options inside and out
Ā 
It also provides great visibility across the broads. so don’t forget to pack your camera
Ā 
Note: Norfolk has the lowest rainfall of any county in the UK
Ā 
It’s worth pointing out that you need to be quite nimble to get up to and down quite a few steps though
Ā 
Note Carefully: Curlew is a tall boat, and will not go under the bridges at Wroxham, Ludham, Potter Heigham or Great Yarmouth. This reduces your cruising area
Ā 
We think it’s well worth hiring Brinks Curlew on the Norfolk BroadsĀ for a short break.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, you don’t need to have any experience or special licences to hire a Broads Cruiser. On arrival, we will give you a full demonstration of how to use, drive and moor the boat. You will also receive videos of how to handle a boat before you arrive.

We provide a manual (electronically and in hard copy onboard) to help you enjoy your holiday.

Our experienced crew will be happy to answer your questions before you leave the yard.

We would recommend at least one member of your crew have good mobility for moving about the deck and mooring.

On arrival at the boatyard, find yourself a temporary parking space outside reception.

A member of our team will direct you to your boat, getting your car as near as possible to the boat so you can unpack

Once you are ready, make your way back to reception with your car keys and paperwork for check-in.

We’ll book you in for your trial run at that point. We customise your tuition to suit your needs.

If the boat is not quite ready, we’ll take your mobile telephone number and contact you as soon as you can go onboard.

Boats will usually be available between 2 and 4 pm. We need them back at 9 am on your day of departure.
Ā 
Some will be available earlier, but we can’t guarantee which boats will be ready early.
Ā 
Each boat is
Pumped out (sewage removed from toilet tanks)
Filled up with fuel and water
Serviced by both the engineers and boat builders
Cleaned inside and out
Inspected by our head cleaner
Ā 
We’re never quite sure what we will find when the boats return, which is why we don’t give you an exact pick-up time.
Yes, please give us a ring to let us know, and we’ll let you know where your boat is so you can go onboard when you arrive. We usually move the boat to just outside reception, so it’s easy to find.
Ā 
In the morning, we will go through the check-in and trial run with you.
Ā 
For safety reasons, you must not take the boat out of the yard until you have had a trial run.

Yes, by 9 am please, ready for our staff to get on board and sort her out for the next customers.

"Very helpful lady on the telephone, with good information and very easy to book. I prefer to speak directly when booking a holiday. Looking forward to our holiday in September."
- Sheila G
"The lady on the phone was very friendly and helpful. It has made the booking a stressful experience, thank you. šŸ™‚"
- Christopher M
"The staff in the reception and out on site were all amazing. The dayboat that came with the property was a great addition. We had a small problem with the heating but one phone call and the chap (sorry, cant remember names) came out straight away on Christmas eve to fix it. We have booked again for next year. Loved it."
- Christopher C
"Always very freindly and helpful. The boats are beautifully presented, very clean and well maintained."
