I had mine boating at 5 months and 11 months. It takes them a while to used to the noise and wind. Most of the time, they will be in their infant carrier anyway. Not to mention, they don't like PFD's, but will get used to them. My wife boated until she was about 6 months pregnant. probably would have gone longer, but the season was over.

Just use good judgement and enjoy. Find a good infant lifejacket and use it. We used a bouncy set last year between the seats and just slowed down....a little

had my daughter out when she was 4 months old... use a good infant life jacket and take it easy. she would fall asleep the minute i turned the key - she is 5 now and gets excited everytime she sees an offshore boat or hears a loud engine
