Remarks:
The Broom Skipper, always popular thanks to her traditional good looks and pleasing lines, offers spacious cruising accommodation for four, or alternatively makes an excellent liveaboard home for a single person or couple. The folding wheelhouse and roll-back canvas roof (effectively a huge sunroof!) allow the skipper and their companions to enjoy the great outdoors whatever the weather allows, and also facilitates access to the whole Norfolk Broads network by lowering the vessel’s air draft to just 6′ 6″. As a locally built boat, the Broom Skipper is undeniably a Broads classic!
