Summary edit

Description
English: Headed for Ranworth Broad, finally The cruiser has completed the manoeuvre of turning around and is now on the way to Ranworth Broad, allowing other boats to pass.

The Southern Comfort, moored near the Swan Inn > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/904117 by the sharp bend in the River Bure > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/904102 is embarking on a trip to Ranworth Broad. But first it has to turn around in order to be headed in the right direction and a shrill horn is sounded to warn other boats of the impending obstacle. Being able to reverse upstream into the wide bend in the river gives more room to manoeuvre and is presumably the main reason why the cruiser is moored at this location.

The Southern Comfort is a paddle steamer that was purpose built for the Broads; the luxury river cruiser has a capacity of 100 passengers for public trips or private hire and runs regular trips from Horning, along the River Bure, to Ranworth Broad and back. A similar cruiser can be seen at Wroxham: https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/682846
