Description
Adventure Ship was a boat ride in which guests embarked on an adventure to Antarctica. In the icy landscape, they would meet penguins, seals and enter a research facility. Near the end of the ride, the boats would rotate and move sideways in a large room in which an aurora (projected onto the back wall) could be seen. The ride concluded with a lift and drop.
Pictures of the ride are hard to come by, but a couple (including the layout) can be found in this brochure (PDF) on the website of manufacturer Sansei Technologies.
History
When it opened in 1991, it was named フリーズィングシー (Freezing Sea). It supposedly featured real sculpted ice for some of the sets although this was later replaced by imitation ice. The new name was introduced in 2004 and stuck around until the ride was closed ten years later.
