May 1964

The boat was hired from 'Ripplecraft' yard at Somerleyton on the River Waveney and was called 'Broadland Swan'.

The Broadland Swan moored at her home yard.

She was a 6 berth boat with a powerful diesel engine that made short work of the strong currents and was ahead of the time with the sliding cockpit roof.
