I can’t wait for the fire effects to be installed on the ride

The ride itself was 12 million dollars. 20 million includes removal of Bermuda Triangle and everything else. Not just the storm ride.

Why was so much money wasted on this.. 20million for such a short ride????? Just why??? 

Hate to break the news but you’re a little bit late to this discussion 😛

With regards to your comment, I don’t think any money was “wasted” on this ride. It’s a great family attraction and although a short ride, the price paid for the actual coaster is probably fair game for a Mack water coaster of this size. It’s clear that a reasonably large chunk of the cost of this coaster went towards the theming, and they did a really great job of theming this ride well. I’d love to see our parks continue to fork out the extra bit of money to make their attractions as immersive as they can possibly be.
