Funland Rehoboth

Friday was a busy day at Funland being that the SeaDragon made the trip from Wichita, KS where Chance completely dis-assembled, made new many parts that cannot be seen, especially the large “keel” which basically is the boat, refreshed the seats and installed new lap-bars and hardware inside and out.
Enclosed are some pictures of the [...]

Here are some shots of the preparations for the replacement of the roof section that became separated from the deck during the huge storm in November.

This picture was taken from the foot of Brooklyn Avenue. Underneath the stern of the vessel, you can [...]

It’s been a busy winter here at Funland, we’ve all had our projects going for quite some time and, hopefully soon, those projects will start coming together….so we can open the doors for business!
Parts of the Merry-Go-Round are painted and ready to be re-assembled. The Freefall will soon be set back in place, along with [...]

I know it’s been awhile since the last post. Just not enough organizational skills, I guess.
Here are some pics of the progress on the boardwalk project.
