Yes no questions
But she is to clever to get her RST, preferring me to have to do the hard yards out there. But she does sit at the helm when I am doing other things.
So no problems.

no chance it would be like me taking her

no chance
getting the bottom line final answer from a bunch of blokes that use false names and put smiley faces at the end of paragraphs is not the best place in the world to get the information you seek.

no probs
Yeh she takes the tinny when ever she wants and never has any dramas. I haven't let her take the bigger boat yet, but it wouldn't be a problem - depends on the conditions and the boat ramps as its a bitch at Tantas with that sou wester blowing even for some of the blokes.

my mrs hasn't asked
she knows better
Main points of concern would be she has now demolished two letter boxes and ran into a stationary delivery truck with a 20ft tray ,behind her in the driveway...because she didn't see it ...nah not gonna happen

In short no way. Then again
In short no way. Then again she gets seasick so wouldn't even think of trying. Yep the reversing down the ramp would be a problem too. I'd give her credits if she was even able to get it in the water (as the young lad found out when he parked opposite our driveway - she saw his car then got in and reversed leaving a nice dent in his driver's door - That's why I always make sure she has up to date insurance).
The other reason why it would never happen involves me taking a sickie and going along....

if she was capable...no
if she was capable...no problem...
but my missus would not even know how to connect the trailer up to the car let alone tow it.
she still thinks my sounder is a tv and the gps is a sterio..
besides all that, she dont like my boat anyway(because im always in it), so its all good for me.

Yep no worries at all letting her take it. Got no choice really her name on the rego papers too. . She can back the trailer, drive the boat and fillet the fish better than some of my male fishing mates

I must be stupid Tony
The Mrs have over and over said we should get a bigger one than the 5.4 Traily. But its more than enough for the 2 off us fishing, and add in a mate or 2 every now and then just perfect for up here.
I think I would leave the glass boats for down south and then go bigger.
