Drayton Manor Park

Found this on Drayton Talks Forum. Credit goes to @Themeparksandy1981

Let's pump it up to 40 folks!
I thought Drayton Talk had closed down? I never joined the original anyway but used to browse on occasion.
Anyway as @rob666 implies this is never going to happen, Pirates Adventure won't come back, it makes no practical, financial or marketing sense and doing so would be silly.
It's just a harmles sbit of fun. Of course it won't make a difference, but what harm is there to signing it?
Signing a petition sticks your name to it, I certainly wouldn't sign it especially if I worked or wanted to work in the industry or at the park itself.
 
Have a look at the current petition list, on the actual website...the organisation petitions for change in the real world, it isn't there for a bit of fun.
Exactly, it's not called change.org for nothing! Just like the petition to bring the Beast back to the UK a while back, this will also fail.
 
Four signatures in three whole years...
I won't be holding out much hope here.
Did you realise it was three years old when you posted it up on here?
Flogging a very very dead horse.
 
They currently repairing the building so they do have plans to use the building again.
What if they were worried about safety of the building? They don't want it falling down. Could be done for any number of reasons. I imagine they use it for storage, I doubt they want this stuff to get wet. They may well be using it for new rides but I highly doubt they are going to reopen a boat ride that will be unmarketable and costly.

I didn’t say as a boat ride I just said they currently repairing the roof.
Even with the money the looping group and the investment group Mubadala Capital have got. They not got much more land to work with at Drayton Manor and they got areas where they can fit flat rides and children’s rides in Thomas land but the next big investment has to go into the pirate adventure building and finish off the last area of the park and with the rides around it and the building still pirate themed it would make sense to keep it pirate themed with the Dodgems, Jolly Buccaneer and the Bounty.
 
Red? Where have you heard that?
Am I right in thinking that they were originally red before being changed to blue?

If they are being changed completely could we see lap bars like on the new-gen Intamin gyroswings (like Loke at Lisberg)?
