They sail pretty much exclusively at Wroxham, Oulton and off Lowestoft

They are not all brown though

That is a stunning looking boat, love it. 8)

Ashley - just a personal request - can you resize pictures before posting so that the whole image fits on the screen without scrolling from side to side ?

It just makes appreciating the subject that much easier ... :wink:

That looks exactly the same as my old 1300 Junior boat tail. The smallest engine
of any car I've ever owned - but the most fun on a tight winding country road.

Certainly buttered my parsnips !
