We really enjoyed it,and its a fab way of cooling down on a really hot day. We have got some lovely pictures of a mother and baby pair of dolphines jumping in the wake waves of the boat. Can recommend.
Hi
Our family have tried the thriller, excellent, you go further out than the sea screamer, it goes 70mph, and they even let you drive it.
[url] I hope this link works, if not have a look at clearwater web page or even google, we go on the thriller every time we got to clearwater. Last year we had a family of dolphins jumping at the back of the boat, I can honestly say it brought a tear to me eyes, it was magical.

We did this last year and clearwater is stunning but we didnt get to see any dolphins which was a shame they did offer you a free trip at another time but it was a 2hr drive there and back so we left it.

We went on it and had a brilliant time. We only saw a couple of dolphins but we didn't mind as we had such a good ride on the boat. It went really fast and was so much fun :d:

can I ask you some questions,
my son would love this, he is in a wheelchair do you think it would be to fast and how much do you get wet. just that he has to stay in his wheelchair so thinking he really cant get wet.
and also how long did it take you to go from orlando down to clearwater and was it easy to find
I was stood right at the back and only got an occasional drop of sea water, I honestly don’t think that is going to be a problem. As for the speed, yes, it does go fast but it’s not dangerously fast. From memory, there is a handrail at the back of the boat which would be around shoulder height of someone in a wheelchair. I think it would be safe for him to be on the boat and it is a great experience seeing these beautiful creatures playing in the waves. However, it’s probably worth emailing / calling them before you go to make sure that they can accommodate a wheel chair. Getting on / off might be the trickiest part.
We found it easy to get there. Indian Creek villa, west on the 192, onto the new toll road (1$) and then onto the I4 to Tampa. We just kept following the signs through Tampa towards Clearwater and then across the Courtney Campbell Causeway. It’s virtually a straight run all the way through, staying on the same road, to Clearwater Beach. We stayed at the Hilton Hotel which was right on the beach and within 5 minutes walk of the Sea Screamer and other boats. It took us about 1hr 45 mins door-to-door with a couple of stops.

Make sure you pick a boat that goes out into the sea & not just clearwater bay, we were looking to go on the Litte Toot but it was closed & we ended up going out that went out into the bay & didn't see a single dolphin. :(
