The Boatyard
The Eastwood Whelpton team includes several specialist boat builders with decades of knowledge and experience between them.
We’re very lucky to have such an experienced crew in our Norfolk workshop to care for our Hire Fleet, but they also enjoy carrying out work on other boats – including their own! Whether it’s a complete restoration or just a fresh coat of varnish, their hard work and skill are the secret to our brilliantly turned out hire fleet!

“As a group of 10 sailors from a Hertfordshire sailing club, we have just spent our fourth annual Broads holiday weekend with Eastwood Whelpton boats. As usual we had lots of fun with the three gaffers we hired, including a friendly race on Barton Broad on the Monday morning. EW, as ever, were helpful; the boats ready for us on the Saturday, clean and in good condition, and the staff stayed to see us back on Monday evening.”

“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.”
