History
ADMIRAL VII is believed to be one of seven (or possibly eight) Admiral class cruisers that were built for the Norfolk Broads hire business, originally to sleep eight people.
She has been updated and modernised since build, with her layout changed from an eight berth into two plus two cruiser/live aboard.
Her previous owners replaced the complete transom along with hull and deck planking; additionally, a new stem was fabricated and fitted along with a new stern knee.
Some of her planking has been replaced by Iroko.
Low consumption LED lighting installed throughout.
