It's been a while since I reported on our own #boat. Before coming to Cheshire I did manage to call in on the #mooring and remove the #heaters from her as, with any luck, there won't be any more #cold snaps that justify trying to stop the boat from #freezing.
She really is beginning to look as if she needs a really good #clean. We had promised ourselves she'd be lifted out last #winter = but the house move got in the way and it was never arranged.

@mlanger @PKYo
Bobbing Boat doesn't tell the whole story of #UK #canal #boat #licencing. It's not just length, there are different rates for private boats and hire boats. And I forget the arrangements for continuously cruising #liveaboard #boaters.I recall that the boats I owned a 1/12th shared in were classed as a #hireboat, although, typically, such boats cruised for about 48 weeks a year, while a typical holiday hire boat only cruises about 36 weeks a year, which is why I can understand the thought that length should not be the sole criteria.
It's different again on the #NorfolkBroads. Licencing is on the basis of area (length x beam) and there are multiple classes with the biggest discounts for #yachts, smaller ones for auxiliary yachts, electric powered craft and so on. Not to mention different rates for hire boats.
And just don't ask about the UK's Boat Safety Scheme! #BSS

On the #NorfolkBroads and #uk #canals running an engine (portable generator, outboard or inboard) on a mooring is banned.Under all normal circumstances I would certainly moan about an enforced 05:30 start.

Having cruised down the #River Ant we reached #BartonBroad. We plan on staying here tonight with our #mudweight over the bow. Tomorrow morning we'll call at #Neatishead and buy a few #provisions at the #village #community #shop.

Talking of no electricity reminds me that last week it was no hot water and no gas for us.
#norfolkbroads #boating #hotwaterI wrote about it at:
https://gregafloat.org.uk/safari/241113cleanup.php#nogasStill to contact the boat yard about the workings of hot water on a boat. I'm sure others here could enlighten me.

Needed to get out this evening to stretch our legs and enjoy the evening sun…
Alt Text: pictures during the golden hour at Whittlingham Broad. The broad, shadows of our stretched legs and a murder of crows in a tree.

I've mentioned it before, but if you want narrow you should try Waxham New Cut, on the #norfolkbroadsRead more about my time on it in 2006 at

We seem to be the only one on the #Broad today. Here's what we see panning around the #boat.
The #boatyard gets a mention in our report of our first overnight #cruise aboard Singing the Blues.

I spent the morning travelling down the #RiverAnt and up the #Bure travelling to the #HamptonSafari #BoatClub annual gathering at #Salhouse Broad.
On the way I passed a couple of #yachts and have just posted the #sunset to #BBC #WeatherWatchers.
I've been attending in the hope that the trip will supply more material for my Hampton Safari web site.

The are several people who delight in sitting by #Ludham #Bridge, on the #NorfolkBroads videoing the goings on and uploading the results to #YouTube.
In the peak of the hire #boat #holiday season it can get quite busy and for many #holidaymakers it is the first #bridge that they encounter.
This example is typical of the genre and really makes you wonder how many skippers should never be allowed to take the helm of a boat again.

Finally, I have managed to write up the story of the three day #voyage to find #water and a #pumpout. The first page is at:
https://gregafloat.org.uk/safari/240512waterloo.php
There's approaching 100 photos in all, of the wonderful #NorfolkBroads -
Once through #Wroxham #Bridge and past the mass of #boatyards you begin to pass a range of #riverside mansions, houses, chalets and bungalows. None of those shown here are the most impressive of the properties.

Belaugh Boatyard had it's usual changing collection of #craft. The river had long flows of #PussyWillow. The #Wroxham locals were out #swimming at Caen Meadow and negotiating Wroxham Bridge took all my concentration, so no time for a photo.
#boatsthattoot #boating #norfolkbroads #river -
Turns out the forecast was good for today and tomorrow so, after learning yesterday that #Wroxham Bridge was passable, we set off for an overnight cruise. #boatsthattoot #boating #norfolkbroads #river

Today was spent cleaning our boat. We walked to The Rising Sun to have lunch, then returned to carry on with the cleaning.

Some friends took the video a few weeks ago. Here's a couple of images from the 5000 word report, one shows the ice stopping us reach out favourite bay on Bridge Broad, #Wroxham. The other one of the angler's boats we encountered in our return.

@mlanger @badger0us
Your boat's a copy cat!This is what we found on Singing the Blues when we stepped aboard last week.
The water is coming in round the window frames and, thanks to a list to starboard, piles up on the lip on the galley worktop above the fridge.
After 45 years it looks like the sealing round every window frame is failing. ☹️

@PKYo
You said:
In other news, I ran out of water this evening. 🤣I wish I had!
Made the mistake of filling the water tank till it overflowed. We now list to starboard, and the drain in the very shallow shower tray is to port. Makes the shower almost unusable and it's our only large use of water.
Unfortunately, our heavy stuff, water tank, hot water cylinder, and pump out tank all to one side. Only the desel tank is on the other side to balance it.

@BoatButts
I can't beat that for graphics, but you can read about the the reason for this one's name and hear a ring tone created to match at:
https://gregafloat.org.uk/safari/230524newname.php
It even provides a link that explains my previous boat's name, but that was never written on the stern. -
@jfk @mlanger
Can't see it working on my home waters where there's often less than three feet of water under you, a slight problem with airdraft and speed limits not exceeding 5mph and often down to 3mph.But I'd love to play with one.
As you see you don't need charts to navigate the Broads. You just follow signposts.😂
