DH and I went on a cruise this week. Our first stop was in Catalina, which, if you don't know, is a small island off SoCal. Its small, there's lots of hills, and most people on the island, drive golf carts, not cars. We're 'currently' a 6 OR 60 state (not for much longer, woo hoo!). DH and I did a 1hr golf cart tour and it was written huge on the wall of the rental place, "children under 6yr OR 60lb MUST ride in a child safety seat". Below the sign...a large stack of Sceneras and Cosco High Back Boosters (the ones with the harness).
SO, commence the golf cart tour! Three babies from the ship (all under 1yr) FF, sleeping, and slumped over, in Sceneras. Several BIG kids (like 4/5/6yo) in way outgrown Cosco seats, in the harness. What's the consensus here? DS is over 40lb, but fits by height in both those seats. I'm sure the golf carts provided a decent install, but in a golf cart, with a lap only belt and low sides, I'd want a top tether for security. ONE couple had their baby in his RF SS1,, but I still felt bad for him, because in the entire 4.5day trip, I think I saw that baby outside of the seat one time.
The good....we passed a really nice looking cart. A 6-seater with high back seats, TWO RF Cuddle MyRides in the second row. How they managed, I dunno. But DH has declared me officially insane because I was way excited about it.
