I remember a couple of years ago when my boys were young and we took them
out for a sail.
1, It was funny listening to them roll back and forth in the V berth when
they were trying to nap. 2. you learn to heave to quickly in case of that
certain emergency. 3, Tied a line to my ankle and to their life jacket just
for security.
It was fun!

We've had Thomas out about 5 times this summer and he seemed to love
it. Really looking forward to the summer. I sure hope Jeff can contain
his jealousy.

Kids are fun on a boat but you need to pay twice the attention, single hand
with him a couple of times , you'll see what I mean.

I don't think I'd single hand with a child so young. Suppose I suffered
a stroke or the boat was hit by a jetski. I might venture out into the
local bay, but something nasty is more likely to happen there of
course. With Suzanne aboard we'll take him on a few good longer trips.
He won't even be two when next season ends.
I'll have to wait and see how I feel about it and how he is on the
35s5. On the Catalina 30, Galaxy 32 and Tayana 48 all he wanted to do
was hold the wheel!

He might show you up.

Like the stroke you had picking up your bike?

The wind may blow!

She can wet nurse us both!

The open stern is an invitation to disaster.

Feel threatened?

One of my dock neighbors found that his two year old was only interested

in
grabbing anything not secured, and throwing it overboard! This game went

on for
quite a while.

Hopefully he didn't get a hold of your iron supplements.
