I'm not saying Fred is old, but I heard Robert Fulton designed Fred's first boat.

Fred, which was faster, the Merrimac or the Monitor? How did their rides compare?

Actually, I shouldn't be ribbin' him, 'cause he's selling my boat!

Fred sure didn't sound like a guy from Carolina when I talked to him either.

I researched and I saw that his first one was a single whipple steamboat

Here's a pic of Fred, he refuses to break down and buy Depends.

Fred became interested in "fast boats" by racing 2 french fries around in the fryer.

His new uniform shirt said "Burger-Merc" on the back, which got him into trouble.

So he bought the franchise and had the shirt framed, it now hangs in the dining room.

For those of you that haven't had the pleasure of meeting Fred, here is a picture of him that we took in Miami last year!!

Even back then, he was trying to push some parts on us while at the bar. Some crack-pot wild-ass cockamamie idea about better service meaning lower prices. What a load of $hit! Turns out, the same parts that he was pushing on the street were the same parts that turned up on www.OffshoreBid.com a few days later! Unbelievable! Too bad they were the sample cup holders and ash trays missing from the OSO party.
