An upcoming event on the Norfolk Broads will include a trip on a historic wherry and a fish and chip supper.
Wherry Yacht Charter is a charity that operates five of the remaining eight wherries on the Norfolk Broads - Olive, Norada, White Moth, Hathor and Ardea.
The 2024 season begins in May, with the option to charter one of the Edwardian sailing boats or book a spot on a scheduled trip.

On Wednesday, May 15 from 4pm to 8pm, a return trip is running from the wherry base at Barton House in Wroxham to The Norfolk Broads Yacht Club on Wroxham Broad.
Passengers will travel on either Olive, Norada or White Moth and a fish and chip supper will be served in the clubhouse.
These surviving wherry yachts were all built by the Wroxham-based boatbuilder and designer Ernest Collins.
They spent more than three decades within his hire fleet, followed by a period of mixed fortunes in private ownership after the Second World War.

They were then reunited in 2012 by the Wherry Yacht Charter Charitable Trust.
There is a choice of either a battered fish fillet or scampi, both served with hand-cut chips, mushy peas and tartare sauce, or a vegetarian option.
Also included in the price is a glass of wine, beer or soft drink with your meal.
Tickets cost £60pp - book and see all the 2024 scheduled trips and information on chartering a boat at wherryyachtcharter.org
