It's been a busy week at Chessington for Project Anchor, the park started to tease something new is coming for the area with a gif of a lighthouse and Seastorm re-opened following its lengthy downtime.
Starting with the biggest news, Seastorm has soft opened meaning the ride might close at any time due to technical difficulties. The ride remains the same but the entrance location has changed and the ride also has a new logo which can be spotted on the exit gate. Hopefully, over the next few weeks, the signage in front of the ride will be updated and we will get a cool 3D entrance sign?
Across the rest of the site, a new building is being built behind the lockers near Elmers Flying Jumbos, and with the area not fenced off, we get a look into the Bobbing Barrels ride area with all of the boats now attached. This ride looks like it's going to be a lot of fun in the summer months. No ride testing has happened yet but we expect in the next 2 weeks we will see the ride spinning and splashing around.
Lots of new theming has been added around the Pirates Cove area, with flags, sails and lots of new theming added to buildings. We can now also see the mermaid has been installed on a rock. The area looks totally unrecognisable and we can't wait to look around the area when it opens in the summer (our guess).
