"We've done 12 (I think) Norfolk Broads holidays since 1976. The Broads are special, idyllic, and any number of superlatives you can think of. So even though we now live five thousand miles away in America, after five wonderful years stationed at RAF Mildenhall from 1975 to 1980, we will reuturn again and again to the Broads. We've hired our boats from many different companies over the years but Barnes Brinkcraft is simply the best of the best. --Major John L. Samuelson, USAF, Retired--"
- John S
"We have customers of Barns Brinkcraft for yers and the booking is always really simple -- the boat Royall Swan is our prefered choice -- the company are overall excellent and nothing is ever an issue"
