7/6 - July 4 on the Niagara River  - Paul Beesley
Four jetboats at Devil’s Hole.  One in the background is going down through the rapids, the others are preparing to move up the river.	Heading up through Devil’s Hole.	Then you turn around and head down.  Guaranteed to get the passengers wet.	Another jetboat heading up.  The shore behind is the US side of the river.	No need for a passport to enjoy this ride.  It leaves from both the Canadian & US sides.
The Niagara river runs fast here.  It takes lots of power to get up through Devil’s Hole.	If for some reason you do not wish to get wet you can go in this boat.	It might be a dry boat but you still get the great ride through the rapids.	Boat 5 going up river.  These boats can do well over 30 knots in flat water.	Boat 5 coming down and soaking the passengers.
