I had the morning at SouthWalsham Broad today Surveying this Broads Cruiser
for Insurance. She was built in Wroxham, England in 1986 by Porter &
Haylett (Connoisseur) for Connoisseur’s rental fleet.
She would of originated from Connoisseur’s base at Trebes, near Carcassonne on the Canal du Midi and transferred to the then Connoisseur base, Port Lalande at Castelmoron-sur-Lot on the River Lot. She’s well traveled!
Since the early 1990s, Porter & Haylett have been known as Connoisseur Cruisers, named after their most successful classes. In 2009, the company took the name of the parent company - le Boat and moved their base to the old Wilds yard in Horning.
The Connoisseur 37 was first produced in 1979, followed in the early 1980s, by the longer 42ft version. The second pairing was produced during 1992 (for the 45ft version) and 1993 (for the 40ft). A number of other models have been produced since 1990, but until c2010 these were only placed on waterways other than the Broads, partly because of their size!
