White Moth - Skippered Wherry Yacht
Sleeps 6-10
ref
BBC50
Start Days: Available for any start day for any
duration
At
the turn of the century, Wherry yachts were the
ultimate in luxury to Edwardians seeking an
adventure holiday on the Broads.
Commissioned in 1915 and entirely refitted by
local craftsmen, she is one of the last examples
of her kind, providing an idyllic means of
experiencing the beautiful Norfolk Broads. Sailing
this elegant craft is a unique way of enjoying the
variety of wildlife and scenery, as well as
providing an insight into how the Edwardians spent
their time on the Broads.
A skipper and local guide is in
charge of the day-to-day running of the craft
(self-contained crew quarters are situated in the
forepeak) and you may sail the boat just as much
as you wish. The Wherry sleeps up to ten guests in
three double cabins and two double settee berths.
