We went on this with our 11 and 13 year old boys. Overall loved it - super fun. A few bumps though. It's very hard to find and parking isn't clear (says you'll be towed). You're told to arrive 30 minutes ahead of time but when we arrived no one was there until right before our scheduled departure time. More instruction on how to handle the boat in the waves would have been great - because the boats are very small, the waves are intense! There was another couple whose boat didn't start so they weren't able to go out which they handled very gracefully. There is not a lot of talking/sightseeing info which was great for us but maybe not for someone else. Most importantly - please know that this is not for everyone. My very fit and active 73 year old parents probably would not have enjoyed or been okay with this at all. It was a pretty intense ride because of the waves.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are sorry to hear you encountered some bumps and hiccups. I will reach out and see if the staff was on the docks prior to your departure. We inform our guests if they feel comfortable going on a roller coaster ride, then they would enjoy this adventure. Happy to hear the boys loved it!
