DRL Marine is a well established family business, headed up by Darren Lewis and ably assisted by his wife Ruth, along with a crew of staff who form the "extended family".

Having grown from humble beginnings as a husband and wife business, by 2006 DRL Marine had expanded to include two generations of both sides of the family and a move to its new home at Womack Staithe, Ludham.

With family members overseeing all aspects of the business, from the tackle shop to boat hire and services, DRL Marine offers a great option for tourists and private boat owners alike, and is building an enviable reputation.

We are members of the British Marine Federation, the Broads Hire Boat Federation, and Visit England, so you can holiday with confidence.

Throughout 2011 we will continue striving to please you - our valued customers - with the personal approach for which our staff and company are renowned. With our deliberate policy of offering the best value-for-money short and long stay holidays on the Norfolk Broads, we know you will want to make your holiday reservation early to be sure to secure the boat (and dates) of your choice.

Stop by for all your private boat needs, day boats or holiday cruiser hire,
boat sales and brokerage – or just to sit by the river with an ice cream or a hot drink and a snack from our Coffee Shop.

Whether you're a first-time boater or a seasoned Broads visitor, we look forward to welcoming you to our family run boatyard at beautiful Womack Staithe.

Relaxation. Isn't that what the Broads are all about?
