I have badly sprained ankle and have an MRI scheduled since after five weeks, it is not healing well. We got Disney in 16 days and I have rented a scooter for our week long trip since I KNOW I won't be able to even walk from the car to the entrance, let alone all through the parks.

Here's my question ..... we are staying at Wilderness Lodge. Can you load your scooter on the boats from WL to MK ?? Just curious. TIA !!!
 
This is from disability sticky (Sue moderator)

Motor Cruisers are large boats that go to and from resorts at MK are usually accessible, but may not be if the water level is very high or very low (which doesn't happen often).
Boat captains have some interesting ways to overcome this if the difference is not too large. We have been on boats where all the other passengers were unloaded first; the almost empty boat floated higher in the water. That made the distance close enough that a small portable ramp could be used to get off the boat.
If there is too much difference in water level between the dock and boat, wheelchairs and ECVs can't be driven on. They do provide alternate ways to get the the parks if this happens.



my own experience

I have rode many times. Once the captain had everyone move to one side of the boat to level it out. Drove my ECV right on
