Broads Electric Boat Show & Cruise on Norfolk Broads
Salhouse Broad, Norfolk - Sat 12^th - Sun 13^th September
(Saturday cruise and Boat Show on Sunday)

Salhouse Broad is situated in the countryside outside Salhouse village and a footpath, about ¾ miles long, leads from the road to the waterside. Public car parking is available at the road. There will be an hourly ferry service by electric boat from the well-known village of Wroxham, which is about 2 miles up-river.

We shall once again be at Salhouse Broad for this entirely environmentally friendly boat show. The Green Boat Show will be a good day out for all the family, and will give a fantastic opportunity to see the tremendous advances that are taking place in sustainable boating developments in the Broads area.
	A marquee will house stands for green traders, displays on sustainable developments in the Broads, roadshows and hands-on activities for children, with green goody bags full of handy tips, thought provoking information and water saving devices. Refreshments will be available and a traditional jazz band will provide entertainment in the afternoon. Car parking will be available for visitors arriving by road but to encourage environmentally friendly travel a free water taxi service will run from Wroxham to Salhouse Broad every 45 minutes.

The water taxis will be electrically powered, providing visitors with a first hand experience of the advantages of quiet, electric propulsion. For further details contact: Peter Howe of the Broads Society on 01603 783096 or email: info@norfolksailingschool.co.uk
