Why not just teach them too drive the boat..after all i learned too drive a boat way before a car and was driving a car at about 14.In the ABA tournaments there was a 16 yr old lady angler who i think drove the boat.More too think about.
Most of the young folks don't have boats...and certainly the school is not going to be able to provide boats for them...so who is going to loan them their boat to learn how to survive in 6 ft rollers...you?
