Broom 10/70

I Surveyed this 10/70 today at Brundall. The successor to the Broom European and similarly intended for the continental market, the 10/70 has a solid keel which keeps it in a straight line even at a crawling pace, making it ideal for the inland waterways.

Inside the layout is similar to the European, with the galley forward to starboard. The sliding doors from the saloon to the side decks have been deleted allowing for a U-shaped sofa. In the master cabin the twin berths were replaced by a centreline double.

Most boats were fitted with twin Volvo's, ranging from 105HP to 220HP, although a typical configuration is this exmaple with twin Volvo TMD41A (150HP each). Offshore, boat trim was improved by fixed or adjustable trim tabs.
