spoken in recent interviews that he plans to expand the ride selection
in Kemah.
There are also many carnival-style games bordering the sidewalk,
starting at $2.00 in price per game. Winning games comes with a small
prize to large prize depending on the game.
One of the most popular rides is the 140 passenger speedboat called
"Boardwalk Beast". The "Beast" is a 70 foot open-deck speedboat that
takes passengers out into Galveston bay for a wild, wet 25 minute ride
at speeds up to 40 mph. Riders should be aware that
they will get wet,
possibly soaked as the "Beast" performs high-speed turns out in the
Bay. The "Beast" season is from around Spring Break until about
Thanksgiving.
