New Family Raft Ride for Typhoon Lagoon: Updated 3/2/17 with Grand Opening Date

A Fast-Paced Waterslide Journey
Gather your crew and climb aboard for a thrilling, white-water voyage you won’t want to “Miss.”
Just beyond the pineapple fields of Crush ‘n’ Gusher awaits an all-new, family-raft attraction owned by Captain Mary Oceaneer—a sea-faring treasure hunter whose haul was caught in a rogue typhoon… and scattered across this tropical paradise years ago.
From your 4-person raft, feel a rush of excitement with family and friends as an aquatic conveyor belt chutes you into action. Then, hold on tight as you spy precious artifacts collected from all around the globe.
If you’re lucky enough, you may even meet the captain’s old diving partner—an Audio-Animatronic parrot who’s still hunting for treasures at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon water park to this day!

Aboard treasure rafts, guests will ascend to the top of the attraction before plunging into a white-water adventure where they will be able to spot some of the treasures Captain Oceanear gathered from around the world.
With a ride time of two minutes, Miss Fortune Falls will be among the lengthiest attractions at both Disney Water Parks.

Wonder if you can ride as a solo? All the other raft style rides are two or more riders. This is why I haven't been going to the water parks.

Probably not. They even pair up groups of 2 and 3 together for these large raft rides. The rafts need to be balanced.
You cam still go to the water park solo...they will pair you up at the loading area. It's no different than riding as a single rider at the theme parks.
