We have sailed with our kids for the last 12 years. They have learned how to kit out a boat for the weekend and 12-14 day trips....food, water, paper products. They can talk to the Coast Guard on the radio, navigate with sea charts, use a sextant, identify many, many marine animals, identify stars and constellations, and read tide and current charts. It's an education in itself with your kids. If anybody tells you that a boat is just a hole in the water where you throw your money is a boat owner, not a boater. Have a blast and enjoy the education that your family gets without knowing it.
