That'd depend on the class of rapids (conseqences for missed lines/mistakes). Any serious consequences would mean a big "no way". This is why I only sometimes raft, and prefer to solo hardboat the hairy stuff.

So in other words you would not risk your life unless you were with a group of other capable paddlers. Because out of shape tourists rafters do not or are NOT capable of paddling efficiently and fast when the guide says Paddle, Paddle, Paddle. Risking your life!!!

Bingo. The only raft I've been in is privately owned and with a group of fellow members of our kayak/canoe club.

Thank you this applies to so many things. I go fishing,hiking and camping and people sometimes ask me to take them out fishing when I take them out they are afraid to touch the live bait, unhook fish and is such a buzz kill. It's cool with kids because you can pass down a skill and most are eager to learn and will try their best. When a full grown adult tells me that's disgusting, your going to eat that, I don't want to touch the bait because they are so detached by reality and rather buy some nasty farmed grown fish is not cute anymore but fucking annoying.

You could not pay me to take a group of out of shape people, that are not into outdoors, hiking,fishing and camping. I don't want a hook thru my eye, have to carry someone else pack, or people screaming in the middle of the night because they hear a deer near the camp.

Same thing goes with Paddle,Paddle,Paddle If the fat fucks run out of gas and can't paddle and you slam against a rock and flip and they start climbing onto you to save them!!!. I'm not risking my life.
