Peut-être une raison californienne à la fermeture des quillards :
Disneyland, Anaheim,
In 1994, at the end of the summer, the Mike Fink Keel Boats closed for the season. All through 1995, the Keel Boats never reopened. Had they closed forever? No! The Keel Boats reappeared on the Rivers of America at the end of March 1996.
Then came... The Accident. At around 5:30 p.m. on May 17, 1997, the Gullywhumper began rocking from side to side while on a routine trip around the island. The Gullywhumper tipped over, dunking a boatload of guests into the Rivers of America. Several guests were treated for minor injuries at St. Joseph Hospital in Orange. Following the accident, the Gullywhumper was removed from the water for inspection. Neither the Gullwhumper nor Bertha Mae operated for the rest of the 1997 season, nor did they return in 1998.
This time the attraction really appears to be closed forever. But perhaps, some day, the Keel Boats will return as they did in 1996
