Hire a boat
Experienced sailors can hire a cabin yacht for as little as two days. These boats have great performance but are forgiving for sailors with just a little experience. With loos, cookers, lighting, bedding and cool boxes on board this is 1930s holiday making with modern conveniences. Wake up to the smell of coffee in a secluded spot as you prepare to enjoy a day's sailing. And, if you need a bit of a brush up, book one of our skippers to accompany you for a few hours.
Support the charity
Hunter's Yard is the home of the Norfolk Heritage Fleet Trust. We manage the last fleet of traditional Norfolk Broads hire yachts, dating back to the 1930s. Our mission is to preserve the historic fleet and use it to educate and inspire young people through sailing and conservation programs. Come and see what we are all about.
