Best value for the money. Never expected the ride to be so exciting. Got the maximum enjoyment by sitting at the rear of the boat to get the full experience. Will tell all my friends it’s well worth the trip into Boston.

What To Expect

Codzilla is a thrill boat that roams the waters of Boston Harbor, exciting passengers with its blend of power and speed.

Codzilla roars with two turbo-charged diesel engines that provide 2,800 horsepower, and it gets going up to 40 miles per hour. It has been referred to as a “water coaster” because of its swerving, curving, spinning and ripping moves. Be prepared to get wet—dress appropriately. And there is also loud music, so be prepared.

This fast and furious seasonal cruise operates from May to October only.

Very fun boat ride. Bring a hairbrush or have your hair tied back. Everyone will get wet but it seems the back of the boat was sprayed much more than the front.
