Connoisseur 1230

I spent a day at Norfolk Yacht Agency today in Horning carrying out a Survey on this Connoisseur 1230.
Owned and hired out by the Funnel Group.

Since the early 1990s, Poter & Haylett have been known as Connoisseur Cruisers, named after their most successful classes.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 this one ( the 40ft).

A low air draft gives access to the majority of the inland water ways.

All Connoisseurs are designed and built in Wroxham England, with over 40 years experience of both building and operating cruisers..... oooops watch your head!!!


 Good to see that connoisseur cruisers of wroxham are still building hire cruisers for european waterways, here are thier two latest builds........

Heigham Sound Broads Dredging Plans on Hold

The Broads Authority has been forced to delay plans to dredge Heigham Sound on the Upper Thurne after permission to dispose of the sediment on land next to Candle Dyke was withdrawn by the landowner. It had been planned to remove 12,000m3 of mud in Heigham Sound and restore the disposal site over the summer. However, those plans are now on hold until a new disposal site can be found. Heigham Sound urgently requires dredging to improve the water depth within the navigation channel. It has silted up to a depth of 90cms in places causing some sailing boats to go aground. Rob Rogers, the Broads Authority’s Head of Construction & Maintenance, said “We are disappointed that the landowner has changed his mind but we remain committed to maintaining the navigation channel and we are pursuing a number of different options to progress the dredging of this important area.” Maintenance work on the markers which define the channel will still go ahead as well as a small amount of dredging to ‘top-up’ the trial island created at Duck Broad last year. Officers will also continue progressing the consents and permissions required to extend the island with the aim of carrying out the work over the winter.

The island was created as an innovative method of dredging disposal. Its perimeter is formed from gabion baskets and the central void has been filled with sediment. Reed is already growing and it is hoped that, once established, it will start to replace reed marsh lost through erosion and provide shelter for overwintering wildfowl. The larger island which is planned would measure approximately one hectare and provide a significant site for sediment disposal. Despite fears that dredging in the area could cause an outbreak of Prymnesium parva algae, which can prove toxic to fish, the water quality has remained unaffected. Daily monitoring during the island’s construction phase revealed counts well below the trigger levels for any remedial action but regular assessment will continue. Carrying out future works over the winter will also help to reduce the risk.
