This is why we boat!
My daughter has been on the water since she was 9mo and chilling in the cuddy of our MCOB. This weekend she kept saying “faster, daddy” until we were running 65 while she had the wheel. This is why we do it. Priceless memories. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...88ae59bb2.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...a419ea918.jpeg |
Love it! You deserve to be one proud papa. |
Pretty cool but in Maryland that's illegal without her taking and passing a boaters safety course first.

Sorry, double post. .

Man that brings back good memories, I had two daughters grow up the same way.

Kids are never going to learn if you start them at 16!! |
Great moments! Good job spotting! Moms proud expression priceless....

And you’re daughter is likely a better pilot than 90% of the idiots I see. We were terrorizing Sandusky Bay at 13, on our own and no one died. Me in a 8’ hydroplane I built and my buds in 13’ Whalers. We used to anchor bumpers for turn markers and have oval course races. At 13, I was the oldest 😉

Great to read, that's how I got into boating, as a baby. If my daughter's mum was a bit more like yours, there'd be a lot more boating going on here.. :( RR |

Taught my son to ride a jet ski like that starting at 7 years old. By 10 he was throwing around a heavy-a$$ FX-140 by himself on our local lake (thru the week when there was little to no traffic and dad had a watchful eye within ear shot from the beach). By 12 we did have him get his boating cert. in MO so he didn't have to play hide and seek with the MSWP on LOTO.

My 16 year old drives my 272 like a pro. We see pin heads that rent 25 foot pontoons on sebago without any training or experience. Just a credit card |
This is NOT mine, just something I saw while browsing. Looks pretty cool. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...6123747b5.jpeg |
Great pics, Cory! Here's some more Sunsation kids in training :)

My son years ago. He just had his first day of high school yesterday and now owns his own 14 ft fishing boat with a 20hp mercury on it. Boy how time flys |
Ohio you have to have the safety course as well and we made him take it at 12 befor he could have his own boat
