Not a prob...I think the best part was when I asked him if he fell asleep out there...atta boy, a big yes...
Just wait til he gets in his own yak, stress level increases big time. We were out one time, winds came, current rippin', too tough for him to paddle in, I started towing him in, got snottier, ended up throwing him in my yak with me and towing an empty yak.
If you don't mind me saying, I think he's at the age where you guys should get a tandem, he will have way too much fun then, and if you think it's easy getting him out now, wait til he has his own space...he'll want to go all the time, regardless of conditions or surf...
