    I grew up there. we used to ride them quite a bit. interestingly if someone falls into those rapids or the whirlpool they use those jetboats for rescue as they're the only boats in the area capable of going that far up the lower River.

    Similar rides available on the St Lawrence River in Montreal, Canada. Big hydraulics, very wet, full rain suits over major life vests, massive jet power you can really feel, lots of screaming. Definitely worth doing at least once.

    Looks like alot of fun. This would be very cool for alot of people who still would like the feeling of racing through the rapids but can't dedicate time or money on a long trip like that, or for people who don't swim well or are not able to paddle with the group this would be the best idea!!! Looks like soo much fun!!!

    At the level seen in this video calling that rapid a Class 5 amounts to classification inflation. If you were dropped off at the right place you could run that wave train in an inner tube no problem. If you folks want to see class 5 go watch kayaking video's of the Grand Canyon of the Stikine in British Columbia, Canada. Makes this stuff look like a Sunday afternoon at the local kiddie pool.

    After so many duck boat tragedies, what happens if the enclosed boat capsizes in shallow water in a manner where the doors are pinned shut? In the duck boat incidents, the life vests inhibited victims from escaping due to their buoyancy pinning them to the ceiling as well. Looks like fun, but could be a disaster waiting to happen.

      Only an expert could safely go through those rapids, class 2 are for beginners.
