: Thanks for the pics - very fun to see other kids in boats!

Here's a picture taken a couple of weeks ago of my two daughters out paddling (shhh: actually they're being towed!). They're both using my Coos 8 design: 8' LOa x 18" beam. Mike's "Micro Sea Flea" looks very similar though mine is a three year old design. Danielle (2.5 years) has the "Pink Pearl" with the outriggers and Lena (4.5 years) is in her "Sharkbait." Lena's paddling skills have increased exponentially this summer. She no longer needs the outriggers (using them with Danielle) and has total directional control over her boat. Simply amazing for some one only 4 years old!
