i cant imagine this ride getting a long wait people already get lost looking for pipeline entrance. Hopefully its just the start of expanding the park into the event area and the parking lot.

"Legends of the Dee?"
Not the thematic direction I was expecting... /s

The long term partnership is interesting. Since this is "multi-level". Could BGW build a new "taller" building where circled to fit a lot more ride in
Here is the approved site plan.
Unless this is already mostly built off-site and just needs to be delivered, connected and enclosed, I can't imagine this opening until late summer at earliest.
Looks like they are actually working on the new ride!
Hey friends!
Yesterday I had a little bit of time to spare, so I headed over to SeaWorld Orlando to check out the latest on the construction of SeaQuest. Keep in mind, I did not head into the park but was able to catch some footage from the parking lot. At the time of my visit, no work was currently happening, but it seems like crews have completed a sizable amount of ground work. It also seems like a good chunk of the show building's steel supports have arrived on site and are awaiting to be installed. I filmed a 5 minute construction update so if you are interested in it, feel free to check it out!

Presumably in like November following multiple last-minute opening day delays if recent FL United Parks behavior is anything to go on.
I’d love to be optimistic on this, but given that the last two dark ride attempts have had massive holes budgeted out of them, I can’t really say I’m too exited about this.
honestly I wasn't either until after seeing the ride vehicle in person at IAAPA. The ride system should be cool, hopefully SeaWorld doesn't skimp out the theming.
I think that's the big concern though. This ride is for THIS YEAR and it not only needs to be built and themed, but it needs a whole, hopefully, themed building enclosing it! That's an awful lot.
Drove past the park the other day, they have made some major progress on the framing of the building. It looked about halfway complete. It's pretty tall! I'm excited.
I just drove by for the first time in weeks during the day and was shocked to see how big this building is! I'll try to snap a picture or two later today...
Thanks for posting!! We gotta be looking at around July 4 as best case scenario for opening. Even that seems pushing it if there is much in the way of built up theming, unless it's built off site and delivered.
