Hello and Welcome
Hunter’s Yard welcomes you to our

boats together, called the
Norfolk Heritage Fleet
Trust.
For those who can’t sail but would
like to learn, we can offer first class
sailing tuition.

However, if you’re not sure if sailing
is for you, why not try our 2 hour
taster sails with an experienced
skipper?

The History of
Hunter’s Yard
Hunter’s Yard is situated in its own
dyke off Womack Water in Ludham.
The two boat sheds are largely as
they were built in the 1930s from
timber in the traditional Broads
style with the majority of original
features intact and numerous pieces
of equipment, tools and boat fittings
on view.
Percy Hunter (pictured right), with
his two sons Cyril and Stanley, built
the first shed in 1932 and by that
summer they had designed, built
and launched the first two cabin
yachts of the Fleet. The Fleet grew
each year and a second shed was
built in 1935 before the outbreak of
the war to help house the 14 yachts
in the winter months. The last 2
cabin yachts were completed after
the war in the late 1940s.
4
young people to sail and experience
the team spirit involved and so
discounts were offered to schools.
In 1995 the council decided to sell
the Yard and its Fleet as part of an
economy measure.
A substantial public outcry was
generated, lead by the staff at the
Yard and the local Eastern Counties
Newspapers. A group of influential
The Hunter family operated the
people agreed to form a Trust with

Sailing Base”. The council mainboat building that it represented. A
tained the traditions of the Yard, but huge fundraising effort was carried
its main aim was to encourage
out, donations flooded in from
across the country and over
£100,000 was received from
concerned people. The final boost
was provided by the Heritage
Lottery Fund with a magnificent
grant of £200,000.
On 1st April 1996 the Norfolk
Heritage Fleet Trust took over the
Yard and re-established its original
name, Hunter’s Yard. It continues
to uphold the skills and traditions
of the Yard and to encourage youth
sailing through the endowment
fund, which provides resources to
subsidise youth groups sailing on
the Fleet.
the 1930s and visitors return time
and again to step back into the
peaceful era that existed before
today’s pressures. The history of
Hunter’s is very much part of the
Yard and its Fleet. The traditions of
quality workmanship and excellent
customer care remain as strong
today as ever and we are proud to
say that we still have people sailing
our boats who have been sailing
with us since the 1930s.
Depsite being a fully operational
hire boat yard with work carried

of a change of outdoor activity? Why not bring them sailing?
Friends of the
Hunter Fleet
The Friends of the Hunter Fleet was
founded in 1996 to maintain a
continuing link with the many people
who made donations in order to set
up the Trust, to act as a “User Group”
for the Hirers of the yachts and to
help the work of the Trust.
We believe the education youngsters can get from working with ‘Mother
Nature’ and each other can be a ‘life changing’ experience.

• tolerance
others
• team work
• problem solve
• how to understand the elements
• increase their self-confidence
Why not get your youngsters sailing with Hunter’s as part of your outdoor
activity programme?
The Trust offers a 30% discount on cabin yacht and half decker hire for all
organised youth groups and schools. (Pillows and blankets included in this package)
Need experienced Skippers?
Can’t find enough eperienced skippers for your group? We can put the

their support of the Hunter Fleet.

By paying a deposit you are agreeing to these Conditions and to any necessary amendments that may
be made in future, of which you will be notified in
writing. Private hiring is through Hunter’s Fleet Ltd.
Youth hiring is through Norfolk Heritage Fleet Trust.
All cheques should be payable appropriately.
Booking Terms
All boats are let on an unattended basis. It is the Hirer’s
responsibility to ensure the skipper and crew are experienced enough to handle the yacht and are not sailing
under the influence of alcohol/drugs. The booking
accepted on the understanding that the yacht is placed
at the disposal of the Hirer on the specified date unless
the company is prevented from doing so by circumstances beyond its control, in which case the whole of
the hire fee will be returned, but the Hirer will have no
claim on the Company. Advance booking for ‘extras’
is advisable. Extra gear includes all the items needed
to board an additional person on the yacht, including
mattresses, bedding and all utensils.
Vechiles are parked on the premises at owner’s risk.
Pets
Pets are welcomed at a charge of £30. If you wish
to bring your dog please inform us at the time of
booking.
Boarding times
Saturday hirers can arrive between 2pm-4pm. For
short breaks we will endeavour to have the boat
available by approximately 11am. You are welcome
to enquire the previous week if you require an earlier
start time. If you are likely to arrive after 3pm on your
start date please inform the staff in advance. There
will be a charge of £20 per boat per hour to cover staff
overtime if you arrive after 4 pm (this may be waived
at the discretion of the manager).
Please help our staff by ensuring the yacht is cleared
not later than 9am on your date of departure. A
surcharge of £15 per hour or part thereof is payable
after this time.
