Moore & Co.

by Ivan Sache

Moore & Co., established in 1925 in Wroxham, Norfolk, operates "the finest motor cruisers on the Norfolk Broads". The Broads are presented as follows in the booklet released by the Norwich City Council:
"The Norfolk Broads is one of the most popular inland waterway in Europe, with 200 km of lock-free boating. It is Britain's largest protected wetland with status equivalent to a National Park, made of navigable rivers, shallow lakes, woodland, fens and grazing marshes. It is also home to some of the rarest plants and wildlife in the United Kingdom.[...] The Broads were formed in the Middle Ages when peat was dug for fuel. Over the centuries, water level rose and the peat diggings flooded, forming the Broads. For many centuries the rivers were vital trading passages. The famous Norfolk Wherries, designed especially to negotiate the shallow waterways of the Broads, carried cargo around inland communities and to and from the coast.[...] Wroxham is the starting point for many boating holidays on the Broads for over a century. Its broad is one of the largest and most beautiful."

The house flag of Moore & Co. is a triangular blue flag with a big yellow M letter.

The flag is made of a wool and synthetic fibre bunting. It has a cotton hoist and is machine sewn. A rope and toggle is attached. This design dates from the merger of James Moss & Co Ltd with J. & P.

Moss Hutchinson Line, Ltd. had a blue-white-red vertical tricolor with what appears to be the thistle in the white stripe. They had 2 fleets- the Spanish Peninsula fleet flew that flag in combination with a red pennant (possibly bordered in blue or white, but unclear) with a white Maltese cross and white letters M & H on either side of the cross; their Mediterranean fleet flew only the pennant.
