Any building needs to be maintained. The rides need daily maintenance when in operation and SBNO rides that receive no attention do not improve in condition sitting next to a beach in a salty climate. My point wasn't the condition of the structure it was that it would make sense to take it down slowly in a controlled environment.

I would imagine the demolition of a 15+ mtr tall volcano that sits in the middle of 4 major attractions wouldn't be something that is going to be taken lightly. No one in their right mind is going to just crash a bulldozer into it and hope it falls where it is without knowing the condition. It sat for 2 years without being touched so I can imagine it wasn't the most stable of buildings. Demolitions are things that would be planned out and done in stages as we have seen thus far...

They've cut the top part off the Bermuda volcano that was the biggest/used to house the fire, you can see the cone shaped piece on the ground to the left in the first pic, that was on top of the main one.

Another one pretty much the same

This was our view this morning..

I was at Sea World today and Sea Viper was running empty.. Does this mean we will see the ride open sooner than September?

wrong. if anything would be closed for a bermuda demolition/replacement it would be flume (runs through bermuda) or jet rescue (perimeter fence is partly made of the volcano.) BT has no bearing on Sea Viper

same maker as jet rescue i believe which has downtime every now and again..

like a sea sponge?

oh really? interesting..

The Sea World show is on every day and has been for over a year.

wow I remember hearing the razorblade myth when I was a kid but whoever was telling it was saying it about the twister at wnw..thanks for the article.

they have officially changed the mon-fri hours with 5 rides opening at 11 instead of 10, sea viper jet rescue the flume rides sky climb and battle boats..

sea viper was also closed for maintenance and skyway closed as well with signs saying due to high winds.

I was in the park last weekend and Jet Rescue and the Flume ride both had signs saying opening at 11am as did the battle boats. Does anyone know if that is going to be the case from now on or was it just a one off? It was quite annoying!

Anyone have any thoughts or care to speculate on the future of the iconic Volcanoes?
