There is no seat he sits right on the floorboards.
I agree on the wet exit practice. He's not afraid of the water I just think that he's probably afraid of feeling trapped.
I like the sponson idea and as long as I didn't compare it to training wheels he might be ok with it.

: !!!! YES !!!!
: Teach him to wet exit and balence brace adn bow rescue. Then the
: fear goes away and he will have a lot to show off to his
: friends. Especially when they try his boat.
: Or - fix the boat.

: What kind of seat did you put in it? No seat adn just enough
: padding on each side of the keel would help a lot.
