I had an Insurance Survey to do today on this timber cruiser.... I think built around the 1940's by Richardsons. She is a one of the Crusader Class. Richardsons began as a boatyard in the late 1930s based at Oulton Broad, Suffolk. They built their first cruiser in 1948, for letting in 1949. Between 1949 and 1957 they built more timber craft, (see pictures below) , before moving to larger premises in their current location at Stalham, where they continued to build more craft today.
