Questions about Zoe
Do I need sailing experience to hire Zoe?
Yes. Zoe is suitable for intermediate sailors only and is not suitable for inexperienced sailors. If you would like to build your skills first, ask us about sailing tuition.
Can Zoe go under Potter Heigham Bridge?
Bridge passage depends on water levels and clearance, with the mast lowered where required. Our staff take our hired yachts through the bridge when conditions allow, and can help plan your route. Never lowered a mast before? Our sailing how-to guides show you how.

From our yard on the Upper Thurne you can sail to Hickling Broad, Horsey Mere and West Somerton without going through the bridge.
Is fuel included?
Yes. One tank of fuel is included with your hire.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes. Well-behaved dogs are welcome, subject to our conditions of hire, and a pet charge applies.
