MV Tern

Goodness, 3rd swim in a week. I am so very lucky to live here when swimming pools are closed. 

Swam across the lake to examine the pleasure boats close up. This is MY Tern, one of the smaller and more attractive boats. According to Wiki :- "Tern is the oldest steamboat operating on Windermere, built in 1891. She is registered by National Historic Ships with certificate number 380. Ships of the National Historic Fleet are described as "being of pre-eminent national or regional significance" and as "meriting a higher priority for long term preservation".  In 2012 she carried the Olympic Torch from Waterhead Pier to Bowness-on-Windermere. Tern celebrated her 125th birthday in June 2016 "
