They had more than one, possibly more than two or three when the speedboat rides where popular. Someone on the forum will know how many they had. I'm not really sure of an exact number.

Very interesting how they used the railroad back then to deliver these large heavy cruisers. Looks like but not show in (as a complete part of the film) that they came right off the flatbed car onto a raceway right into the water. |
