My two grandsons never showed interest in outboards, even after building a hydroplane with one of them.  I’m thinkin’ if I start my 7 year old granddaughter driving a small motor on a 14′ fishing boat, and then move her to the hydroplane, starting her out with a 5 or 6 HP on it (which will plane it) and moving up in HP as she gets the hang  of it – maybe I can get some interest.  She is an active kid and likes things that move fast!….so maybe??!!
