Windboat Design

I surveyed a lovely old wooden Broads Cruiser on Friday at Woods Dyke Boatyard in Horning on the Northern Broads. ‘Merrywind’ is classed as a Windboat design by Graham Bunn of Wroxham. She is a product of the era of the tall sided majestic looking wooden Broadland Motor Cruisers designed specifically for inland water ways use. She’s a real survivor, and has great charm and character. These boats were not particularly expensively built in the first place, but like Merrywind, she has proven to be persistently durable.
