Regarding Sea Dragon. In April 2023, Bay Beach announced that it would remove the Sea Dragon, as it needed steel replaced in the frame, which would have cost more than $300,000. However, later that year the park announced that it had found an exact replacement to replace the Sea Dragon. When the park was visited in August 2024, the Sea Dragon was still closed, so it seems likely the updated version has not yet been installed.
