The other day my daughter finally had a day off work. We decided to go out in the 16 for the time, together! It was an enjoyable experience. Then a surprising thing happened. She turned and asked, “Hey, Dad, can I 17 the boat?” I had a look of fear in my eyes 18 the boat can be driven at a very high speed and can be turned over very quickly. However, I gave the driving seat to her and began 19 her how to properly control the boat. I told her to remain calm as I had completely believed in her.

We not only had a 23 morning on the boat, but also invited our little neighbour who is 8 years old and put him in the 24 right between us. As I drove at top speed, making sudden turns and jumping over the waves, all I could hear was my neighbour 25 and screaming at the top of his voice because he was having such a great time.
