Things to Do in Rockland

Fish don’t say “cheese.” But that doesn’t stop captains Doug and Jeff Amorello from snapping photos of the monstrous striped bass and bluefish that their customers reel in. The two own Sashamy Sportfishing, where they orchestrate half-day fishing trips around Plymouth Harbor aboard their 36-foot charter fishing boat, Sashamy. As full-time fishermen, the duo knows their way around the area, and as family members, the two have a soft spot for promoting wholesome activities. They welcome all ages aboard their boat, fostering the future of fishing stories shared between fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, and teenagers and their cell phones.

Victory is right there, staring you in the face. Unfortunately, victory is also on the other side of rolling barrels and a wall filled with boxing gloves waiting to punch that face. This is Extreme Obstacle Course, an intense blue and gray obstacle course with challenges that require physical prowess, problem-solving skills, and more than a little bit of luck. Challengers must first jump over giant balls and then dodge a wall of moving boxing gloves, which can send them falling into the foam pits below. Then, swinging punching bags attempt to knock them off their feet as they navigate a series of narrow beams. Other challenges include rolling barrels and a Tarzan-esque rope climb. There's no reason to fear defeat, however. If knocked off the course, participants will fall safely into a pit of foam cubes or be sucked into an alternate dimension made of cotton candy.
