I chatted today with someone I met on another board - and he said that he repeatedly encountered situations where he was told by CMs that he couldn't go on rides involving a boat and water with an electric wheelchair. He said they gave excuses about the chair shorting out if water got in the boat - or if the boat turned over??? (It seems to me that if the boat filled with water, there would be way more problems than just an electric wheelchair shorting out.) Some of his other advice was spot on, but I'm just wondering if anybody here has encountered this kind of resistance from CMs. I'm talking about a standard size electric wheelchair (actually probably one of the smaller adult chairs) - not an ECV or scooter.
