Thanks for the reply Andrew but I have now purchased my new boat (new to me that is) and its a lot larger than I had planned !!!. It most definitely won't get under wroxham or potter bridges. I have brought a "Princess 33" !!!!!!!!!!! 33 foot long X 11 foot beam with twin diesel engines and an air ...

Hi SOA member's
Does anyone know if a 4+2 soft top is a good boat for the Norfolk broads ? We have been on the broads with our 570 a few times and now we are thinking of getting a boat permanently moored there but I’m not sure about the low bridges. I have a chart that shows some to be only 6 foot ...

SOLD I will be on the south side for a week this year. Do you know of a slip and car and trailer storage ?
Cheers

Thanks for the replies.
I have twice stayed in a chalet for a week at that marina with the pool stan. It is spotlessly clean and the pub was good too with entertainment on some nights. We moored up right outside the chalet door so we had the best of both worlds really all be it a bit pricey. But I ...

Your not wrong it is a beautiful place with plenty of wild life and good pubs. But I haven't been on the southern side and now you've mentioned it maybe I'll give it a go this year for a change.
Thanks Ken

Hi all
I have been doing a bit more digging after reading what Galaxyman wrote . what I have found is on page 2 in the library in the 1979 original brochure that I donated to the SOA a couple of years ago. I still have the original. It would appear (I am pleased to say) that both Sue and myself are ...

Hi Sue
With respect Sue the picture of your 570 only shows it has deeper sides than a 535 . The bottom of the hull is identical in shape, this is easy to see if viewed from the rear or underneath the boat . I do think this point needs to be clarified as to the difference between hull types, what I ...

Go onto "Board Index" and at the botom of the page you should have a referance section with a library page. If not then i'm sorry to tell you that you are missing some of this site but I'm sure admin will sort it all out for you. I think you need to be a paid member !!!

The library section of this site has all the dimensions of most Shetland boats
