Freddie 'n stuff

Guess what, we now have a lovely Quicksilver inflatable tender with 4hp Mercury engine! We got a great deal from Challenge Marine who gave us the special Boat Show price without us even having to go to the boat show!
As Quicksilver are made by Mercury, and the motor, there really was only one name we could give it: Freddie. As in Freddie Mercury. Late of Queen. Bohemian Rhapsody? Oh come on, you know.
Having realised that at 2.75m it's too big to inflate on deck, we are now getting quotes for davits (or deviates as Mike insists on calling them).
We spent last Sunday zooming up and down the channels in the marina in Freddie, great fun!
