Codzilla is Boston’s 2,800 horsepower thrill ride boat. Think of it as the rollercoaster of the Boston Harbor. The unique hull of Codzilla makes it capable of powerful 360-degree spins that make a big splash.
Make sure to secure all of your belongings and wear something you don’t mind getting soaked.
Codzilla’s been a Boston summertime staple. It’s a rite of passage, and a popular orientation activity to “welcome” new students into the city. Bostonians themselves consider Codzilla one of the tourist attractions “worth the hype.”
True to its name, the ride will give you a scare and a splash as you ride through the Boston Harbor at speeds up to 40 miles-per-hour. It’s not your average cruise ship, with a few tricks up its sleeve-ranging from hairpin turns to full 360-degree spins.
The 70-foot aluminum marine is light on the water, flying through waves with the help of two turbo-charged diesel engines and blasting water jets. The side of the boat is painted to resemble a red sea monster-count it as your fair warning. The boat rides to the tune of humorous narration and 80s music blasting from its 30 on-board speakers.
Don’t worry, if children 4 years old and up can ride it, how scary can it be? Rides are $45 per person and last 45 minutes. The boat does not make any stops but does double as a sightseeing tour of the Boston Harbor area and skyline. Learn more and reserve your turn on Codzilla, Boston’s first and only thrill ride boat.
