Ski boat and wakeboard dealer Nautique Central’s Gold Coast branch manager, Sam Greenland, told Parker was in his element in the water.
‘He was loving it always laughing and having a whale a ball as soon as he got going,’ Mr Greenland told.
He said Parker cruised about 500 metres along the bay’s calm waters with his parents Timothy and Karin Bryants, from Singleton in NSW.
Mr Bryant told Parker has been power-boating since he was just two-weeks old.
‘He just lights up whenever he takes to the water, so we figured we would give him a crack.’
We’ve been teaching him balance and how to grip on tight from his backyard pool.
So he knew exactly what he was doing,’ he said.
