Construction

Track is a semi-circular plastic channel with a small amount of water running along it. Boats slide along the track, assisted by the flow of water.

Constraints

  • Maximum track slope - 60°
  • Lift hill maximum slope - 25°
  • Maximum height above ground - 65 feet

Other Information

  • A good water slide requires at least one steep drop, but can be extended into a complex layout, so long as care is taken on the crests of hills, as dinghies can crash off the track.
  • A remedy for the problem is to build a completely circular section of track at the crests of hills and in the turns, which prevent the dinghies from leaving the track. Also by covering the track instead of the roofless track, it can prevent dinghies crashing, although it will lower the excitement.
  • This ride is called Dinghy Slide in RCT2 and Dingy Slide in RCT3
  • In the RCT2 readme, a message says that the water slide does not include water, even though it is located under water rides.
    A message in the RCT2 manual saying that the dinghy slide does not include water.
