Review of the Norfolk Broads boat Swan Ranger

Positives: Swan Ranger is a well-designed, spacious cruiser ideal for four people. It features two comfortable cabins, each with a permanently made-up walkaround double bed, one of which can be converted into twin beds - and both with en-suite shower rooms for added privacy. The dual steering positions offer flexibility, allowing you to cruise from the upper deck with panoramic views or from the interior helm when the weather is less favourable. Bow thrusters provide extra manoeuvrability, making mooring simple and stress-free.

Negatives: There are a number of steps within this boat's interior, so perhaps not the best craft for those who are physically infirm. On the same theme, the deck sides can be a little high to access depending on where you're moored.

Swan Ranger dimensions: 10.67m x 3.66m (35ft x 12ft)
