I know Dis can't possibly utilize all the props and material that are removed from attractions when they are no longer active but there are enough waterways where maybe these could be used as scenery pieces. But we don't know what condition these are in and what it would take to recondition them to be usable. Anyone know where these two were originally used?
The one on the left was the boat from the Rivers of Light show that's already been mentioned. The one on the right is from in front of the lion king theater at the riverside of the Harambe Village. The condition of the one in the photo from 2021 looks pretty bad, but I'm pretty sure they just refurbished it and put it back, unless they made a exact copy. Both boats were gone by 2024 in satellite images. It looks like this is the spot they store the Kali rafts during refurbishment as well.

Thanks. I knew they looked familiar but I couldn't place them.
