I have come accross details of Seaworld Orlando's new B&M flying machine that by all accounts is to be named Manta as Seaworld have applied to trademark the name.

Once you have opened the link click on where it says IOACENTRAL and you can see some leaked artwork of the new ride, or someones own drawings Laughing

, Whatever it does look fairly special if the drawings are correct.

I'm a tad sceptical about the images although they are similar in style to the Jungala ones officially produced for Busch Gardens Africa.

In any case we are just days away from the official announcement from Sea World. I'm hoping the wing tips will dip in the water and there will be at least one tunnel dive into the water.

Can't wait to get back over there in 09 what with Rip Ride Rocket also opening at Universal.

I am thinking of also going out to Florida in 2009 if my first trip out go's well. I am not sure on this rides pictures but it looks so cool and a great coaster.
