How old is old enough?

Well look at it this way, then why you ask?
It is all about being a responsible adult.
I take my children on outings that most people consider dangerous. My daughters started rock climbing at 3 years old. They started water ski at 7 and today as teenagers are very mature young ladies.

Like all you must teach your toddler properly, you or your significant other must know what to do at all times besides the Ship. It can be a rewarding experience and a way to introduce future sailors to our world.

On the other hand if you wish to stay bound to the land then do so. My children have been around water since they came home from the hospital. They have weathered storms with us as young as 6 months so it is all about what you really feel you can do and can not do.

Good Luck
