That’s where the Fly Fish came in .  Given a choice of peaceful parasailing, normal jet-skiing and the terror of Fly Fishing, I naturally picked terror first.  Enjoy the wonder of watercraft, the poster said.  It didn't mention anything about aching arms, and legs twisted around as the Fly Fish bounces on the waves.  All in great fun, though.  If you could look around the inflatable's mass rising to vertical as the boat speeded up, the view of the sparkling blue waters and the sea spray were quite refreshing.

The Ford Escape V6 shows off its huge cargo capacity. Four participants' luggage, snacks and Coleman coolers were able to fit with room to spare. Definitely 100 percent SUV.

Absolutely at home on the beach, the Ford Escape V6 put its ControlTrac II AWD system to good use on the soft sands.

The Escape's sharp approach and departure angles allowed it to climb steep sand dunes.  Poles would have been good slalom markers.

Like a fish returning to water, Manila Bulletin's  Aris Ilagan immerses himself in the waters of Subic.  He will eventually clock the most and probably the fastest laps in a jet ski that day.

Like Garfield returning to a lasagna buffet, journalists Vernon Sarne and Anjo Perez, and Ford's Don Gelinas enjoy local frozen delights.  Exclaims a  doubtful Don, "Cheese ice cream?!"
