Is this sentence correct?

.

I can see a boy washing the car.

If you mean "I am in a position to see whether a boy washes the car" then the answer is YES.

But if you mean that "You are actually watching a boy now" the answer is NO....You need to write "I can see a boy washing the car" (PRESENT CONTINUOUS)

Sorry FBM, I have obviously nothing better to do !

I appreciate everyone who comes in to help, even if some are a little esoteric.

Neither do I. I was trying to drag out the conversation.

Thank you
