Hey Mikie!
I would suggest that he use the mirrors, but also look out the back. Just to make sure he is aware of his surroundings.
On that note, I can say that when using the mirrors, I believe, you turn the wheel towards the direction that you want the boat to go. That is the most simple info I can give you on that. Take him to a parking lot, and let him fire away.
(wear your helmet as well. lol)

Backing in is easy, but he needs to get confidence and practice. You should have seen the guy that was backing in a boat at Pewaukee. Mr. Extreme and I got a good laugh, as the guy was pretty much jacknived across the 2 ramps.

Your son should be able to put that trailor in in seconds, get it loaded, and on the road.
Good luck, and take pictures. heh heh heh
