That’s awesome!
Start em young and teach em to respect what they’re drivin....
Junior started in an 8’ flat bottom sea flee with 7.5
Went to a 10’ Hydro with a 20.....then some mods....
Working together on a 15R with a Hustler now....
He’s got some seat time in (and has his eyes on) my 02.....
That’ll be another year or 2.....
Sorry Jr /;-)

:thumbsup: Thats what its all about. My son just started his first job today working for one of the local boat rental companies-you have about 7 years left to keep feeding all things positive that you can into him before he will get input from other adults outside of family and teachers. Time flys-

How about a vixen

A Vandal would be perfect. They drive better than a Vector. I`ve had both and driven many more. Love the Vandal.

Get him a 13' whaler or similar, and a 25 merc on it and let him loose with it. A go fast at his age is really not a good idea. Mine started out with a 13' tunnel hull home built jon boat w/a 25 merc and still loves it. He's 30 now, lives on the water and uses it a lot.
