PHANTOM

Boat from £84 per night

Phantom sleeps up to 6 people and has decent-sized seating areas. Inside and outside driving positions make this boat a good option for all-weather cruising.  The sit bath is ideal for washing younger kids (and dirty feet).  She’s a great boat, but not one of the newest in our fleet.

If you worry about your knees, you might want to choose another boat. Phantom has quite steep steps and high sides vs others in our fleet

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.
 
Some will be available earlier, but we can’t guarantee which boats will be ready early.
 
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
 
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.
 
In the morning, we will go through the check-in and trial run with you.
 
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.

"We had hired Brinkes Sunshine boat, the boat was so good - very easy to drive, spacious for 5 people and clean. We loved the option of two shelter covers as we had a baby with us, they really helped … we also enjoyed the Sun by keeping the roof open. Had a lovely time!"
- Manjula N
"Staff were amazing, boat was perfect for a day boat. Cant fault the service from booking to leaving at the end of the day"
- Matt s
"We stayed at main sail right opposite the reception. We had an amazing holiday and have already booked to go again next year just after our wedding. The house was beautiful, staff welcoming and the area beautiful. It was lovely to sit and watch the boats and swans go by while you eat breakfast or have your morning coffee. Definitely a place for all ages"
- Zoe T
"My wife and I took our daughter and our two grandchildren for two hours on a Brinklet. Everyone was very helpful and the boat was easy to steer. The river and broads near Wroxham offer a nice variety and we had a very pleasant couple of hours."
