    Wish I had a good answer to that one. Being a #boater I have never tried actually seeing the #Broads by land. Places like #Wroxham and #Horning have plenty of possibilities for #riverside views but not broads.

    Most Broads have edges too soggy to have roads near them and most of the banks are in private hands or the hands of organisations such as the #NationalTrust and #Norfolk #Wildlife Trust, whose priorities do not to encourage unencumbered access by the masses.

    Malthouse Broad, near Ranworth, must be one of the best exceptions. I've never tried to reach Salhouse or Wroxham by road, but the owner of the first offers moorings which are accessible from a car park some 800yds away and it's probably possible to explore the grounds around the sailing club at Wroxham Broad.

    If you don't mind being part of a party then the #NWT do have guided walks at #Hickling.

  2. Having put two #heaters aboard earlier in the week we decided we'd take the opportunity to check on them and see how warm the #Webasto #centralheating copes in the current extreme conditions. The forecast is for 1°C overnight.

    It was fully dark by the time we moored a mile upstream at the head of navigation at #Horstead #lock

    We plan to get down to #Wroxham #Bridge tomorrow and the return to our #mooring.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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

  10. 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.

    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.😂
