Why I don't want an inflatable tender.

There are many reasons why I don't want an inflatable tender for Windchaser. I don't know how many exactly but I know where they are. They are up and down the Fitzroy River, upon which Rockhampton sits and where Windchaser is moored. They like to sun themselves on mudbanks and have been known to go bump-bump onto fishing vessels. And they have big teeth.

Now that is just being unreasonable.
I am sure an inflatable tender could make a lovely toy for them.

I guess I am being unreasonable. The Fitzroy River is pretty drab - mud, mangroves, mud, muddy water. That would really get to you if you had to live in it. Now I am feeling a little guilty of depriving the crocs of some meaningful recreation. Perhaps I should not only get an inflatable dinghy (What colours do crocs like best?) but for extra interest I should tow a blow-up animal. Maybe an inflatable croc or something.
