Your son needed his life jacket on

What fun!!! A good way to test your dinghy handling skills 😄😄😄😄

[@onFIREfamily]

Yes it was!

I have been looking forward to this video ever since you hinted about it. Great fun!! Brought back memories of going over those falls with my two young boys in a Seadoo Jet Boat probably a dozen times or more in 2004, remains a highlight of our family boating memories. Great video guys!! ❤❤

What a way to wind down a loop and the kids will have more stories to tell. hope the prop survived.

[@onFIREfamily]

We came through with no problems!

[@dr.laurav8013]

What a blast! It is very impressive that your prop was unscathed!

[@onFIREfamily]

Totally!

[@wendybusby9525]

Awesome! Looks like a lot of fun!

[@BellsRidesAboardSeaBoss]

What great fun, I would be so worried about the props, but totally worth it for the fun.

[@onFIREfamily]

Totally worth it!

[@alexkleckner1641]

Looks like it was a blast! What a beautiful area!

[@onFIREfamily]

It really is!

[@SailingOléHop]

Haha! It was not easy to go Upstream with our 2.3 hp. But it was a lot of fun and we almost tip over 😂. Thanks for sharing

[@onFIREfamily]

It is a fun challenge, especially with the current!

[@Richoshay1]

That looks like it would be great fishing.

[@onFIREfamily]

It does!

As a local, those rapids are our roads. We go through them with 18’ tiller boats with 60-90 hp. Many go through at full speed. Those rapids have also claimed many lives and nearly taken lives-wear a life jacket!!! The rapids are not to be taken lightly or played in, just saying. I think it was in the 80’s or 90’s a teenage boy from a yacht lost their life in the Crooked. There’s been others over the years plus the ones that managed to barely survive. Devils Door is called that for a reason. You were there during very, very, very low water. Another tip, in rattlesnake country you may want to hike in something other than flip flops, otherwise you might end up in the ICU in Parry Sound for 3-5 days. Those sneaky buggers are rattling less and less lately….

[@onFIREfamily]

Thanks for the advice! YIKES!

[@karikarr6377]

Nature’s Waterpark!

[@onFIREfamily]

Totally!

[@onFIREfamily]
