Hmmm. Does not sound wicked fun but would be worth the scare for me. I would be in death or no death.

Also,

That should be an amusement part ride. Hurricane on the Water! Screw rollercoasters. Damn crap boxes on rails.

Any of you dare to go out there I will kill you myself!

I'm on watch up at the Command Center right now listening to the VHF and HF radio's for people in distress from the waters off NH, Maine, Lake Champlain in Vermont.
