🚤⛵ 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗕𝗼𝗮𝘁! 💙

Have you ever wondered what makes a holiday on a traditional Norfolk Broads boat so special?

Here at 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗺 𝗕𝗼𝗮𝘁𝘀, we've been welcoming people to the waterways since 1946, and we believe that part of the magic is the boats themselves.

Our traditional motor cruisers and sailing yachts have a character and charm all of their own.

They're not about rushing from one destination to another. They're about slowing down, enjoying the journey and discovering the beautiful waterways around you. 🌿

Imagine cruising along the peaceful River Thurne, sailing across Hickling Broad or exploring the lovely waterways towards Horsey Mere.

🦢 Wildlife around every corner.

🌅 Beautiful views and big Norfolk skies.

☕ A morning cuppa onboard, watching the world gently wake up.

💙 Quality time with family, friends or someone special.

One of the lovely things about hiring from Martham Boats is our location on the Upper Thurne, giving you access to some of the quieter and more unspoilt parts of the Norfolk Broads.

And with 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟳 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻, perhaps it's time to start planning your own Broads adventure!

🦆 𝗘𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱𝘀 – 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁

One of the special things about spending time on the Norfolk Broads is never quite knowing what you might see along the way.

Birds, insects and other wildlife are all part of the experience, but a little care helps everyone enjoy them responsibly.

A few simple tips:

• 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 – use binoculars or a camera zoom rather than getting too close
• 𝗦𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗻𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 – especially around reedbeds, banks and quieter areas
• 𝗔𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗮𝗹𝘀 for a better photograph
• 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗻𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 – particularly near nesting or resting birds
• 𝗡𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 – it can do more harm than good
• 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗱𝗼𝗴𝘀 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 when ashore or near areas where birds may be nesting
• 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲 and leave moorings and riverbanks as you found them
• 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼 – anglers, paddlers, walkers and other boaters may also be enjoying the peace and quiet

Often the best wildlife encounters happen when you simply 𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻, 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

That way, you get to enjoy the Broads at its best while helping protect what makes it so special. 🌿

There's something rather special about being out on the Broads at this time of year. Quieter waterways, peaceful surroundings and the chance to enjoy a few hours fishing away from the hustle and bustle.

If you have your own boat and trailer, did you know that here at Martham Boats we offer a Half-Year Slip Key, giving you the freedom to enjoy the waterways throughout the autumn and winter?

🔑 𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 – ideal for winter fishing trips.

⏰ 𝟮𝟰-𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗹𝗶𝗽𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀* – whether you're an early bird or prefer a later start, you can plan your fishing around your own timetable.

🚗 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 – during the winter months, you can park your car and trailer close to our slipway.

🛶 𝗔 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 – launch directly onto the River Thurne, with Hickling Broad and surrounding areas within easy reach.

Whether you're planning regular fishing trips or simply fancy getting out on the water whenever the opportunity arises, our Slip Key could make life that little bit easier.

🌿 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗱𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘅𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲?

One of the nicest things about this part of the Broads is that you really don’t need to rush.

It can be tempting to look at a map and try to fit as many places as possible into one day, but often the most enjoyable trips are the ones where you simply choose 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.

For example, you might head towards 𝗛𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗱, enjoy the wide open water, watch the wildlife and perhaps stop somewhere along the way rather than immediately thinking about the next destination.

Or you could make 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲𝘆 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗲 part of your day, taking your time along the quieter waterways and enjoying the changing scenery as you travel.

The important thing is to remember that a Broads day isn’t just about how far you can go.

Allow time to:

• Slow down and enjoy the scenery
• Stop for a drink or something to eat
• Take photographs and watch the wildlife
• Explore somewhere that catches your eye
• Simply sit for a while and enjoy being on the water

And always leave yourself plenty of time for the journey back.

Sometimes trying to visit 𝗛𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗛𝗼𝗿𝘀𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗽 can turn a relaxing day into a race against the clock.

𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝗻𝗷𝗼𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆.

That’s often the best way to discover the 𝗨𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲. 🚤🌾

⚡ 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗼𝗮𝘁?

One of the first things people notice is just how 𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗲𝘁 the experience is.

Without the sound and vibration of a diesel engine, travelling by electric boat can feel very calm and relaxed. You can hear more of what is happening around you – birds in the reedbeds, water against the hull and the general sounds of the Broads.

That quieter experience is part of what makes electric boating so enjoyable, particularly if you are hoping to take photographs, watch wildlife or simply enjoy a peaceful day on the water.

There are a few practical things to understand too.

Electric boats are still handled in much the same way as other day boats, but customers are shown the controls, how to manage their speed and how to keep an eye on the battery level during the hire.

As with any boat, it is important to plan your route sensibly, allow enough time for the return journey and remember that wind and river conditions can affect how much power is needed.

There is no need to rush. In fact, electric boating is very well suited to slowing the pace down and enjoying the journey.

At Martham Boats, our electric day boats are handed over with all the information you need before setting off, so you can enjoy your day with confidence.

Quiet, simple and a lovely way to explore the Broads. 🌿

🍂 An ordinary autumn day at Martham Boats

There’s always something happening around the yard at this time of year.

One minute, a hire boat is returning from a few days exploring the Broads. The next, another boat is being moved into position for winter work.

Around the yard you might see:

• Customers arriving or returning from the water
• Day boats and cruisers being checked over
• Yachts being prepared for maintenance
• Boats being lifted, moved or brought into the workshop
• Painting, varnishing, engineering and timber work underway
• Staff helping with fuel, water, moorings and general yard jobs
• Owners visiting their own boats before the winter months

It is a real mixture of people, boats and jobs – all happening alongside one another.

Autumn is a particularly interesting time at Martham Boats because the hire season is beginning to quieten down, but the workshop and boatyard side of the business starts getting even busier.

There may be fewer boats heading out for holidays, but behind the scenes there is plenty going on to keep the fleet, the yard and customers’ boats ready for the months ahead.

Just another ordinary day beside the River Thurne – and rarely a quiet one!
