Lightwater Valley Sell Swinging Ship

Originally introduced for the 1990 season, Lightwater Valley’s original Swinging Ship, The Wave, has now been sold.

After over a year and a half on the market, the ride, which was located in a rather secluded area of the park, is set to be removed from the Valley following acquisition by a currently unknown purchaser.

The Wave was replaced by The Flying Cutlass ride, which is located in their latest themed area, Skeleton Cove. Though offering a similar ride experience, the newer model was deemed more cost effective when compared with relocating the ageing model to Skeleton Cove.
