Wherry Yacht Charter is the charity responsible for the preservation of five of the remaining eight wherries in the world.
Three of its five wherries will be sailing together from Wroxham to How Hill, via Ludham, on Monday, May 1.

It is not often that three of these iconic Norfolk Broads vessels can be seen together in full sail.
Ardea, Norada and Olive will be passing under Ludham Bridge between 2.30pm and 4.30pm, wind and tide permitting.
Those watching from Ludham Bridge will also be able to see the spectacle of lowering and raising of the huge sails to allow their 50-foot masts to pass underneath.

The trio will then arrive at How Hill in the early evening, wind and tide permitting.
The journey is being used as a chance to re-sharpen the skills of the volunteer skippers and crew before the sailing season begins.
