I’m looking for drawings for a Commander Broads holiday cruiser. The builder’s C J Broom of Brundall, Norfolk do not hold any as the boats were developed on the shop floor. Does anybody have access to drawings or know where I might obtain same. so I can build a working model. I used to work for Brooms in the late 1960’s hence my interest.

Yes that looks like it. If I remember she is about 34ft. long with a beam of 10ft..

Hi Trevor

Have a look at these links

http://www.horning.org.uk/stylegallery.php?page=broom

http://www.tradboatrally.com/gallery08b/slides/Tonga.html

http://www.broomowners.net/gallery/discontinued-models/36-commander

They might provide food for thought and the Broom owners club might be able to help with drawings

Nearly 7 years? Your clients must be more patient than mine!

Quality is always worth waiting for… even the Fearsome Pope was prepared to wait and that was just a paint job.
