I had heard good things about this ride and I watched the Popeye cartoon as a kid, so I knew I would enjoy any theming present on this ride. I like water rides, but the rides I had ridden in my lifetime before this ride never seemed to do that good of a job getting everyone on the raft good and wet. I was expecting this ride to be similar, until I actually got on a raft and saw other seasoned riders in a mad scramble to get all of their belongings into the compartment provided to keep things dry. At this point I got excited that I might be on a real good water raft ride. I was not disappointed. The theming is good. The ride has a large variety of elements to keep riders entertained and most importantly wet. Non riders can pay to spray, although it is not at all necessary, since the rest of the ride is exellent at getting and keeping you wet. There are a few areas where it looks like you may get a chance to dry off, but there is always some element that quickly ends any hopes that you have. This ride is the wettest thing going. When I got off my raft, everyone aboard was drenched. Im talking wring out your underwear, soaking wet. Now thats a real water ride!
