The Rapids Jet Boat was awesome! I have been on two other Jet Boats and this one is definitely the best. Going up and down the rapids was so fun and they were bigger than I expected.
From Rapids Jet

Second time we have been on rapid jet and just as good if not better than when Dave took us 😳🤪 Shannon took us on this trip he did a fantastic job very skilful driver and very entertaining great knowledge of the river and surrounding area, Rapid jet is awesome!!! Very well set up and professional in what they do, if you have been once and think oh I’ve already done it go and do it again it’s so cool the second time!!!! Thanks Rapid Jet
