Main drop
Raging River was Adventure Island's log flume, which was removed in 2006 to make way for Rage, the Gerstlauer Eurofighter rollercoaster.
The log flume took riders on a journey down a river in log boats which seated up to five people.
Boats floated through a hut with a leaking roof, down a small drop, around a curve and then up the larger second lift hill. After this was the ride's grand finale: the main drop which would cause a splash capable of soaking both riders and spectators waiting for a drenching in the designated "splash zone".
