nice haul. Never underestimate the magic of "steering the boat" on a kid. My buddy's son was about 9 when I set and controlled the throttle, but had him sit and take the tiller. He became a boater for life in about 15 seconds. I stored the boat in my brother's garage over the winter. One day buddy and son came over for a mushroom hunt.
Buddy's son flew out of the car and not seeing my watercraft actually wailed out loud,"Wherrreees the b b b boat!"...
