I had a trip out to St Olaves today to Survey this Broom at Anglia Yacht Brokers. AYB's are situated where the River Waveney meets the New Cut. St Olaves Marina is a family owned run concern, which has been developed from nothing over the years. They have now completed the second marina basin, offering floating pontoon berths with water and electricity. Their pontoons have been designed to offer varying sized berths so they can cater for all types of craft. St Olaves Marina is based on a 12 acre site, so they can supply all year round storage ashore.
Based on the same hull as the 35 European, this boat has an entirely different deck and superstructure. The boat has an aft cockpit, which was enlarged on the later models.
Two forward cabins provide twin v-berths and a side-accessed double, whilst another double can be made from the convertible settee in the wheelhouse/saloon. With so much space taken by the cockpit, there is only room for a single bathroom alongside the galley. There is an interior helm in the wheelhouse/saloon.
Most boats were fitted with twin 145hp turbo-charged Perkins 6.354 diesel engines. Later boats had 150hp range 4 turbo Perkins, giving a maximum speed of 21 knots. This one was from the hire fleet, and for inland waters and just has a single 72hp Perky through shaft.
