    Wow I love old stuff like this! Bit like watching a Jack Hargreaves film! :) I have lovely memories of the Broads - Wroxham, up to Potter Heigham through that bridge with a pilot!) then beyond. Then down to Breydon Water (some stuck fools!) and down beyond. I also loved The Fens from Cambridge to Bedford.

    The processes don't change and the skills move in from generation to generation of staff. Wonderful to see Graham's calm leadership again. I well remember him persuading this offshore sailor that an engine was not required. We've been "Friends" for years now and both our children learnt their sailing skills in these beautiful vessels.

      Thank. We hope to encourage a new generation of sailors to experience the 'slow' pleasure of traditional sailing, with no luxuries, just the wind, wood and water, and an immense amount of fun, pleasure and unforgettable memories.

      Thank you. Our aim is to ensure that future generations will be able to 'Sail into history' on board one of this remarkable and unique surviving fleet. All the boats built in the 30's and just after the war are still sailing proudly. Traditional techniques are still used because they work. There is simply no need to change them.

    the comments are off on the 1930s launch so I'll comment here instead, i have never seen caulking done with sawdust in the water after launch, learn something new every day, or waste that day,

    • @huntersyard1
      @huntersyard1 Месяц назад

      Comments are now enabled. Thank you. The launching and, indeed, the bringing of the boats into the sheds is a remarkable process, but so effective. Everything at Hunter's Yard has changed little since the 1930's. It truly is a place of 'living history' where experienced sailors can enjoy some thrilling sailing in a breeze and brand new sailors of any age can learn.

    Graham demonstrates how to take out all of the stress involved with handling a large heavy gaff boat in very confined waters. You simply have to do everything properly and then calm will prevail.

    It is over 40 years since I last hired a gaff sailing boat on the Broads. I am now booked in for a 3 berth Hunters Yard boat in a months time and I admit to being quite excited!

    Way back in the mid 1960s, my parents took me on a three holidays on Hunter's boats. Wood Rose, for two years running and Luster on the third. It's amazing that these classic boats are still in use. Wonderful! They were such memorable holidays and I still tell stories of those days now I am in my 60s.

    A beautiful boat I must say. This channel must be quite deep, right to the edges.

    • @huntersyard1
      @huntersyard1 7 лет назад

      Thank you for your comment FlatlandMando. Actually, some places are quite shallow, while others are not but suitable for the boats specifically built to sail on these beautiful Norfolk Broads waterways
