On Columbus day, I decided to take my 10 and 9 year old boys to Codzilla, something I have been promising them all summer, and so happened Columbus Day was the last trips of the season.
It was nice in that it was not crowded, we were able to sit in the front of Codzilla. A side note, Codzilla is a large speed boat that probably seats 50 people, it has a monster-looking painting on the sides. I thought codzilla was meant to signify Cape Cod in some way with Godzilla. However, come to find out, Codzilla is after a Killer Cod fish . . . as you depart to Boston Harbor on the boat, the crew of Codzilla begin a story about a giant Cod Fish and better watch out, yada yada yada . . . Fairly boring to me.
Once we made it out to Deer Island (no deer just water treatment plant), the story ends and the crew sits down . . . so is something going to happen?????? Well, sort of . . . yes, gets going . . . good turns, boat does a 360 degree turn, more turns . . . get a little wet (water is cold, definitely bring jacket). Finally, the boats begins to return to Long Wharf (did you know the wharf was at one point, was 1.3 miles long?), and goes extremely fast on its return (somebody had a hot date), so fast that you get that water eyes because of the wind in the face.
Rating 5 out of 10, would be lower but the boys seemed to enjoy it . . . not the thrill I thought it was going to be.
