Review of the Norfolk Broads boat Solitaire

Positives: Solitaire is a spacious cruiser with a front steering position, offering a full sliding canopy over the helm and saloon settee. This allows for open-air cruising and alfresco dining when the weather is nice. All cabins are permanently made up, featuring two doubles and two single bunk beds. The single-level floor design makes it ideal for those with limited mobility. The boat is equipped with a microwave and a 240-volt electrical system. With plenty of room for six people, it's a great choice for a comfortable cruise.

Negatives: No bow thrusters for a boat this size. No walk-around beds. Be aware that your side view over the reed-fringed banks on forward drive cruisers is limited.

Solitaire dimensions: 12.80m x 3.66m (42ft x 12ft)
