Audio problem: Throughout the raft scene it is so obvious that all the yelling and talking from the excited children is dubbed - through most of any dialogue their mouths are shut.

Trivia: One year prior to this, Tom Savini worked on the special effects for the first Friday the 13th film. Savini was approached to return for the second film but turned it down as he felt it shouldn't have a sequel and disliked the idea of Jason being revealed to still be alive and becoming the new killer. He elected to work on this film instead.
