If something is happening that shouldn’t be caught on camera then it is something that shouldn’t be done at all.

Well obviously. But from a risk management perspective I don't let any of our sites/operations be videoed while active operations are ongoing, just so that we don't inadvertently provide evidence for OSHA violations, improper workplace maintenance, or ammunition for owners. By videoed i mean for third party distribution not for documenting progress or internal use.

Wasn’t really sure if this was big enough for its own thread so I decided to throw it here. This was tossed out in IU, and getting discussed. Talk as you will.

POTC getting a big refurb after BTM has been thrown out there.

Feel like that could warrant its own thread. That ride needs a refurb, they often only run half the boats recently.

ummmm… no

ummmm… no

I think they changed something. I used to remember always being backed up past Johnny at the end of the ride. But the last couple of times I've been on it there has been no boats in the unload area. Seems like there are less on the ride then their used to be.

Running even a couple less boats could cause that, but they definitely aren’t running half. The difference between the most and least boats you’ve ever seen operating on the ride is in the low single digits.

The more likely catalyst to what you witnessed was not the number of boats on the attraction but rather how efficiently they were dispatching them.

idk when I was there last week I started being a huge nerd at a few different rides and tracking boat release timing (I'm bad with words tonight don't judge me but you know what I'm trying to say). Props to the CMs there, there was a boat launching every 30 seconds almost like clockwork and every single one packed. Good attraction with some real good capacity
