Resumen del Editor

You're Cleared for Departure, Amity Six. Have a Good Trip.

Set sail with author Dustin McNeill as he goes behind the scenes of Captain Jake’s Amity Boat Tours! Adventures in Amity is the ultimate guide to the legendary attraction that once stood at Universal Studios Florida. The book contains over 30 new interviews with the ride’s designers, engineers, and skippers for unprecedented insight into its creation and operation. Hear the untold story of the Jaws ride for the first time ever from those who were actually there!

Points of interest:

  • Introduction by filmmaker J. Michael Roddy (“The Shark is Still Working" documentary)
  • Hear from park execs about the disastrous opening of both Jaws and Universal Florida
  • Hear about the seldom seen 1990 Jaws ride that closed down shortly after the park opened
  • Trace the evolution of the spiel script starting with its original and vastly different 1987 pitch
  • Learn how engineers guaranteed the ride’s operational reliability upon its 1993 re-opening
  • Hear stories from the 1990/1993 opening teams as well as the 2012 closing team
  • Hear from skippers about working with the sometimes temperamental mechanical sharks
  • Contains stories about other classic Universal Studios Florida attractions including Kongfrontation, Earthquake: The Big One, and the E.T. Adventure
  • Hear tales of breakdowns malfunctions, pranks, celebrity guests, and falling overboard
  • Contains coverage of the Jaws ride still operating in Osaka, Japan

So Fun

I listened to the sample and knew I needed to hear the rest because it sounded so much like my own experience. It was so interesting to learn the history and mechanics of the ride and hear all the interviews. The Jaws Ride is iconic and will be missed.
