We were out this morning tubing and then playing with ballast and the Mission Delta. My 17 year old daughter was driving and I asked her to head left. This is the cool part - she throttled up on the starboard engine and used thrust to steer versus using the wheel. I was impressed and told her I was going to brag on the forum. Proud Papa!
 
Well hell! You should be!

Only thing that would've impressed me more is if you told her, "Hard to port" and she didn't give you the blank stare:thumbsup:
 
Great job @Scuba_ref's daughter. Ya know their smart when they figure it out on their own.
 
I feel like I need to chime in and say congrats... It's my boat and I still would've just turned the wheel.

Great job teaching the kids!!
