Yankee Clipper first lift

The boat in the foreground has just come down the big chute and is headed back to the station. At this point, the boat has just passed under the first lift. The boat ascending the lift will soon traverse the lower flume as it heads towards the second lift. Guests were warned to keep arms and legs inside the boats and to remain seated at all times. Standing as a speeding boat was about to pass under the first lift was particularly dangerous behavior on the Yankee Clipper.
