hi anyone give me some info on swan rapide from richardsons, looking to hire next year and wondered what its like, condition wise and comfort for 4 adults and also will it go under wroxham bridge
Honest advice?? Hire something else. One of the Bourne 38's like "Broadland Mars" for instance.This is personal opinion obviously so make of it what you will. I'm sure there will be other comments. It was the worst boat we have ever hired for both accomodation and comfort. The inside helm position is crackers being almost midships. Really uncomfortable trying to helm from the top. The so called two bains at the stern are one cabin with a piece of hardboard dividing them and very cramped. Can you tell it was not my favourite! Others are likely to be polar opposite to my thoughts.
To reinforce my own comments, While we were out on this boat, we had to have the yard out to the batteries a couple of times. On one occasion it was the yard owners own son who attended and actually said this was the worst boat they had ever produced!
