Mack water coaster track has arrived in the Sea World car park. We can expect more track and supports to appear over coming weeks as they arrive from the German ride manufacturer.
 
There are sections of both blue and white track, which is likely related to the ride's storm theme.

Owing to the large size of water coaster vehicles that function effectively both as floating boats and roller coaster trains, water coasters feature quite a wide track gauge.
 
Water coasters use track for the true "coasting" sections, but splashdowns as well as floating sections use more traditional flume troughs. This means that this water coaster will utilise much fewer sections of actual track than most roller coasters.
