The Beast is New York City's very own thrill ride and no amusement park is required. It's a Circle Line speedboat that takes you for a music-filled, wet-and-wild ride through New York Harbor. For 30 fun-filled minutes, you'll soar past the skyscrapers at a heart-pounding 45 mph. The Beast even makes a quick stop at the Statue of Liberty for a close-up photo opportunity.
