No idea why I'm only just discovering your videos. Pure enjoyment to watch and of course our favorite family holiday destination.
Another wonderful Norfolk Broads film, from you both. So good to see you have such a happy time again, aboard a broads cruiser. Lovely to watch a couple who know how to enjoy this wonderful place and no MOANS, about mooring, hire boaters, speeding, Broads Authority etc.etc... Looking forward to your next trip. Well done Sherz & Linz.
Cheers Andy! Counting down the days already... ;)
You guys make some good videos! I love the water and I’m really enjoying the videos !
Absolutely brilliant love your clips watched them all makes me excited about going on the Broads later this year 👍
love your video .love the broads
Cheers Tom! :)
Very well done Norfolk Broads is my favourite place I'm lucky I have my own boat really enjoyed watching your vid 🤠
Thanks Mark! Aw you're living the dream then, that'll be us one day hopefully... :)
Really enjoyed the video, very down to earth which is what I like to see and it looks like you had a great time too. Also loved the drone footage it gave so new views to familiar places. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Thanks Ben! :)
Awesome I love watching ur vids I’m going to north broads in August and this has been a great help 😚😚😚😚😚😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Thanks, glad you enjoyed! Ah you'll be in for a treat in August, especially if this is your first time!
djsherz it is my first time yeah 😜😜😜😜
Love the drone footage! Excellent video! Thanks for sharing!
Cheers Rachel! Still learning to fly that drone, it came soooo close to landing in the drink haha.
Hello John and Lindsey, I really enjoyed your video. Glad that you had seven glorious days on the Broads. The drone shots are incredible. Best wishes, Andrew
Cheers Andrew, glad you enjoyed it! Roll on 2018... :)
I love that place I live in New Zealand and would like live in Broads
Excellent you two bring the fun to the boards your a joy to watch Keep up the brill blogs and yes you're famous well done
Thanks Rob! 2018 feels like such a long way away right now though...
Fantastic guys. Me and my partner Katie are returning to the Broads on Friday! Cannot wait!
32 days to wait for us.... weather looking good for you guys so far, hope you have a great week out there, save some of that weather for us!
I do hope it remains. We're in Kent and it is currently 22 degrees. We'll send some your way in 32 days :)
I do have a question.. We have booked a rowing boat for the weekend. This is for two reasons - 1. Mooring up somewhere next to pubs is not always possible. 2. The sheer fun of it.
Would you recommend one or not?
The past two times we've been it's been August/September so VERY busy and long waits to moor but perhaps that won't be the case at this time of year? Also we're doing 4 days :D
Thanks mate,
Alex
Alex101087 The rowboat does come in very handy. For stops like Salhouse or Malthouse broads, it's easier, more peaceful (and in the case of Salhouse, cheaper!) to drop weight in the middle and row across. You can also find little cuts to explore in a dinghy that a cruiser wouldn't fit down! Funnily enough we haven't got a rowboat this year, but only because we're bringing Linz's dog with us this time, and he's just too big and clumsy to get on and off the thing!
brilliant video.. we are on the broads 27th july 2020 for a week.. cant wait.
Thanks Steve! We were supposed to be there in April this year, not sure when we'll be rebooking for now!
@@djsherz are the mud weights ok to lump in to keep the boat from drifting in middle of salhouse broad. fancy a nigh in the middle of a broad if we cant get moored up.
@@steve30b Yep, that's what they're there for. We used to tow a rowing boat as well, so for soemwhere like Ranworth where it's pot luck to get a mooring at the staithe, we'd just drop mudweight in the broad then row across. Unfortunately we had to ditch the rowing boat when we started bringing the dog along, didn't fancy our chances of getting him in and out of the dinghy! It's nice to have a nice peaceful night on the mudweight in the middle of a broad though.
watching 2017 again ;still good ;but wanted to watch 2018 !!!!!!!!!!!spelling right this time ;you bounce off each other ;keep it up . One day our paths may cross ;really enjoy films .
very enjoyable , pity we have to wait for next broads adventure .Video content was excellent ; nice to see you 2 bounce off each other .
Thanks Peter! Always great to hear that people enjoy our videos, we enjoy making them! :)
Has it been a year since your last visit, great film and loved the drone shots.. You are creatures of habit like me, same locations as last year but better weather and a better bbq by looks of it. We are going in August and we do the same things every year as well, nothing changes in Norfolk, that's why we like it. I've been going since I was 8.. That's 40 years!! Keep up the good work and love the new hairstyle!
Oh yes, there are certain spots that HAVE to be on every year's to-do list! A few new spots this year though, first experience of Wroxham bridge and what lies beyond, and first visit up Dilham way. Next year we're hoping to explore a little further south, make it to Norwich, maybe try Oulton Broad and Beccles as well. But yes, you can guarantee that old favourites like Ranworth and Salhouse will always make the list!
djsherz
Your low air draft type of boat will likely go under Beccles old bridge, too. The yacht station there, and at Oulton Broad are really nice; and, I think, unspoilt.
Your video was awesome; and captured the essence of The Broads in all its serene glory.
I'm now single, and dearly miss the annual trips down from here in Chester my ex and I made.
Cheers for your comments! Sorry to hear about the situation with the missus though, maybe you can find some other like-minded individuals to hire a boat with? Seems a shame to miss out on a bit of Broads action.
it looks like you both had a great week , funny name for a boat that's green lol , those barbecues looked really nice , it was making me hungry .
"Emerald Gem" would make more logical sense I suppose! Yeah you can't beat a riverside BBQ on a sunny day...
I Sheri and Linz . Are on the broads this year ,I ask because I am trying to get there myself ,that’s if the flooding as subsided. Bit of a mess at the moment ❤️.
Excellent video yet again, we was there the same time as you, passed you and waved as you entered Wroxam. I am writing this message from my hotel room in Koh Samui Thialand, but would swap it for the Broads.
I know the feeling! Never been Thailand, but done New York, France, Spain... still doesn't beat a week on a boat.
Very entertaining - what a week for the weather. Great stuff guys, sub'd. Si.
Nice one, thanks Si! :)
I live in norwich, its only a 15min drive to wroxham, when you retire you need move over this way. Lots of people from the midlands seem to have this.
I lived in Earlham until I was 13, would be nice to get back to that part of the world one day...
@@djsherz i went to earlham school, used to work on norwich market back in the day we sold the captains hat by the ton evey summer all ways the dad, would'nt been seen dead in one back home, but thats the joy of the broads, 150 miles from home so who cares lol. Have you booked for next year ?
Quality videos looking forward to the 2018 edition. What background music do you use for these videos?
Hi Joey! It varies - pop tracks, karaoke versions, but mostly copyright-free stuff that was originally intended as music beds for radio stations... Got a few custom CDs for amateur video producers as well. Basically, if I like the sound of it, I chuck it in! As long as you're not monetising a youtube video, nobody seems to mind at RUclips Towers about copyright.
djsherz where can I find the jingle that is playing in the background at the church, where lynz crept off? It's a lovely tune
It's one of those random radio beds that I acquired from god knows where. All I know is that it's called "Wonderland".
When is the 2018 video out?
Am editing it at the moment! Realistically, probably a couple of weeks away yet...
whens your next broads adventure guys missed one this year
Brilliant video and lovely couple. We will be there next week for our first time on a boat and in the Broads, for four nights. Which Broad do you consider the best for mud-weight and do you just drop the weight off the boat while the engine is still running or switched off? Can you mud-weight anywhere in the Broad (middle or close to shore)?
Also do you phone the bridge pilot before you arrive at Wroxham or just go there, moor up and try to find the pilot?
We always mudweight on Malthouse and Salhouse broads, then row across to get to dry land. It's best to keep your engine running until you've moored - when you enter the Broad, just drive up to where you want to mudweight, stick it in neutral, lower your weight, then shut off the engine. You can do it anywhere you want within reason, but be mindful of other boats in the area. Don't stop so close to the shore that you'll get in the way of boats entering and leaving the mooring, and remember that depending on the wind, the boat can spin a full 360 degrees around the mudweight, so leave plenty of room all around!
Regarding Wroxham, we just pulled up at the pilot pickup point, and he jumped on board before we even had time to moor up! July will be a lot busier though, it's probably best to ring ahead just to be sure. You'll need to check the tide times as well - it's not very tidal around Wroxham but the river level does rise and fall a bit during the day, enough to stop some boats from going under at high tide. The pilot will advise you of a good time of day to come back through on your way back.
where did you get your cap from could do with one of them for our first broads boating hols in sept
If memory serves I bought it at Roys, the big store in Wroxham, but you can buy them pretty but anywhere on the Broads, I think even some of the boatyards sell them!
I was the chap at Ranworth! :-), nice to meet you
Likewise! Hope you had a good week too... :)
One of the best weeks i've ever had on the broads, we were really lucky with the weather
I know right? Holidaying in this country can be such a gamble, we really dropped on this time.
Great video me and my gf find your videos very interesting we are planning to start making videos ourselves and posting them starting April 2018
Cheers Andrew! Let us know when you post something up, always enjoy a good broads vid! We're heading back again next may, already counting down the days haha.
@@djsherz I will be sure to record a short video clip on my phone and give you both a shout out. just a few weeks to go now.
sherz did I hear you say your from Stoke on Trent? if I did well we dont live far from you as we live in Nantwich
Small world eh!
Good video wee are going in September from Stalham boat called Commodore sleeps 8 but only 4 of us going so plenty of room
Commodore? How the other half live eh haha... You should have a great time though, it's a fantastic boat from what I've seen of the pictures!
Hi this is about the tenth time and in the past we have had some old tugs this year we are splashing out
You'll certainly be doing it in style this year then! Hope you have a great one...
You going again this year John?
Yep, 21st May... bring it on!
Me too, Gold Gem 3 from May the 22nd! See you there!
Will do! Fingers crossed for a decent week's weather... :)
I Hope so, I've been looking at long range forecasts, obviously its guess work but the temperatures look a bit on the cool side, But hey ho.
The weatherman can't be sure what it's going to do tomorrow, let alone next month! I have hope...
how much of the broads can be cruised in a week
You can do quite a lot actually. Most of the northern end can be done in a week, but if you're planning on crossing Breydon and exploring the south side, you're going to have to pick and choose!
OK THX FOR THAT
Anthony Parker
There are useful guides which offer info about how long it'll take you from one point to another. The maps available, real and virtual, are all clear and excellent. They detail important things like.... where to get water, bridge heights, tide times, pubs, free mooring,
Shops etc. I'd suggest doing as much pre-planning as possible if you're considering going down to Yarmouth, and crossing Breydon. You'll just be doing a lot of boating (not stopping and visiting places) if you go South whilst down for a week ~ and having your boat yard on the Northern Broads. Good luck whatever you decide!!! 😊
ill be on the broads for 2 weeks not a week
B
Smoking in bed !!!!!!!!!!!
Yup, we're on holiday haha. Nothing for Richo's to worry about, it's my own duvet anyway ;)
