Sail Back in Time on our Classic Cruiser – Moorhen
The Norfolk rivers and broads are full of life, but also very peaceful and a beautiful place to escape and spend some time with loved ones. This magical boating experience onboard a vintage wooden cruiser will provide a great chance for you to get together with family and friends and enjoy quality time in the Great British outdoors.
This experience is fully skippered, however if you would like to, our qualified team are there to provide instruction and allow you to take the wheel and have a go at helming a piece of Broadland history for yourself.
Moorhen was built by Moore’s of Wroxham in 1953, originally in the Broads Hire Fleet and has been lovingly maintained and restored over the years by several private owners, before returning to Hire as our first ever motor cruiser at Eastwood Whelpton. She is a stunning piece of Broadland history and oozes character and charm – we are excited to give you this opportunity to share a piece of our local history and enjoy a cruise with a difference.

“My two grandsons did their RYA training here over the summer school holidays. They really enjoyed the training from very good instructors. I enjoyed delivering and collecting them to/from this lovely boatyard and partaking of their coffee & ice cream served from the converted horse box.”

“We travelled 18,000 kms for another holiday with Eastwood-Whelpton straight off the plane from New Zealand.”
“Huge thanks to Annie and Andy and the EW team for the boat prep., dealing with our food order, and pick ups and drop offs at the station. I can’t recommend EW highly enough, and we’ll be back for another holiday just as soon as the opportunity presents.”

“A big thank you to all the staff. We enjoyed a day trip on the Moorhen for our mums special birthday. The staff were helpful from the booking process to the actual day. They could not do enough to make sure we had a fantastic day. They catered for mum’s dietary needs with afternoon tea as well as having an amazing skipper on the day to make the trip very memorable.”
