My partner and I cruised last June and rode the banana boat ride. We loved it! Because we were sitting on the very back, they gave me the emergency whistle to blow if anyone fell off. Well loe and behold my partner fell off on one of the fast turns. I was so shocked I could only scream...but before I could even get the whistle to my mouth the driver had stopped and circled around to get her. I am glad he had little rear view mirrors! Even with her falling off we really liked it. We also did the para-sailing and that was awesome. I am the world's biggest chicken and can't believe I actually did it. I guess I thought pixie dust would protect me...anyways, it was bumpy going up, I could feel the cable being let out. Once I was up at the top the view was unbelievable. I kept trying to not think about this little cable and harness was the only thing keeping me safe. I am not sure I would ever do it again, but was glad I tried it and have the pictures to prove it!!!
