Review of the Norfolk Broads boat Soprano

Positives: Soprano is a spacious dual-steer cruiser, ideal for families, offering the flexibility to helm from either the enclosed lower position during poor weather or the upper deck for panoramic views in fair conditions. Large picture windows throughout the saloon provide excellent visibility and a bright, airy feel. Accommodation includes two permanently made-up double cabins, one with an additional single berth, as well as a convertible double settee in the saloon. The boat also features 240-volt electrics and a microwave for added convenience.

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.

Soprano dimensions: 11.58m x 3.66m (38ft x 12ft)
