“This was a last minute break for the wife and myself. and chose Royall Swan as it looked as if we would be able to get on and off without to much trouble as we both have mobility problems. And it turned out that we could.
We found Royall Swan excellent for us. The bathroom is a really good size and is ideal for anyone with problems getting around like us. The boat itself is easy to handle assisted by the bowthuster making it easy to come alongside and moor up.
Only 2 problems we experienced were we quickly run out of the matches we were given on arival as the cooker had to be lit by them. We overcame this by buying a gas lighter as soon as we could.
And the other problem we had was dozens of Bluebottles appearing from nowhere which took us 4 days and a can of fly spray to completely eliminate.
Apart from that we had a nice relaxing week and would not hesitate to recomend Barnes Brinkcraft.”
Hi Robert
Thank you for this clear and helpful review. You are not alone in liking a boat with fewer steps once on board and a large (for a boat) bathroom
We'll look into the auto spark thank you ... amd at least leave a lighter on board
All the best,
The Team at Barnes Brinkcraft
“Though showing sings of wear and tear ( the bathroom a little tired ) the Royal Swan is still the boat for us. She handels well and is verry comfortable and easy to moor, just the job for us oldies....Keith Woonton...”
