Can Water Rides Be Taken While On Pacemaker?

My dad is 55 years old and has had his pacemaker for about a month and a half. He is 5 feet and 8 inches, and weighs about 210 pounds. He takes a few medications that his has doctor prescribed for him over the years, and he also has diabetes. Is it safe for him to safely engage in water rides, such as water roller coasters at Water World?
