Hi Laura,

This boat wasn't named "Raggermuffin" and the Norfolk broads Database does not show any boats with that name but that is not to say she hasn't been re named by a new owner at some point. I would strongly suspect that your fathers old boat (if not this one) is still on a waterway somewhere as the Brooms from the 60's and 70's are still very popular and are very well built and aa a result still have a value of around £17-£20k for a good example.
Kind Regards
Gary

Strange question but was this Broom boat called Raggermuffin as my father once owed it and it would be lovely to hear if its still going.
