Jet ski rental @ Coco Cay

Has anyone experienced this option? Do they give you a ski and show you your area or do you have to follow the leader similar to Castaway Cay? We don't enjoy the follow the leader scenario. Also, just to be clear is it pronounced Cay to rhyme with Day? Or is it pronounced "key" also like DCL? Just like to get it right, thanks everyone !

It is a follow the leader type of tour but if you are placed near the front, you will go full speed.  If you are placed in the back and you keep moving closer to the person in front of you, they will move you up in the order.  Out of 9, I started in the fifth position.  By the end of the tour, I was in the second position.

From Grammarphobia.

Q: Why do we have two words for a small island—“key” and “cay”? And are they related to “quay,” the word for a wharf?

A: “Key” and “cay” are just different spellings of the same 17th-century word for a small, low island, especially in the Caribbean or off the coast of Florida.

“Key” is more common in Florida and “cay” in the Caribbean, and it’s likely that local customs and place names have kept the different spellings alive.

As we’ll explain later, both of them are probably derived from “quay,” a word from French that means a wharf.

First let’s talk about the pronunciations.

“Key” is pronounced KEE, like the unrelated word for something that opens a lock. “Cay” is usually pronounced the same way (KEE), but some dictionaries give an alternate pronunciation, KAY.

“Quay” was originally pronounced KEE, and that’s still the preferred pronunciation (it was once spelled “key”). Some dictionaries give only that pronunciation, though in American English two variant pronunciations are recognized as standard: KAY and KWAY.
