Is it a coaster?

This new Mack water coaster being installed at Seaworld San Antonio this year has brought up a new debate - Is it really a coaster? Being someone who needs some more credits on their list, I would count it. Why? Most log flumes or shoot-the-chutes do not have long portions of dry, coaster-like track. In my opinion, the ride cannot be compared that well to rides such as Splash Mountain or Dudley’s at Islands of Adventure. Or even Jurassic Park River Adventure for that matter.

It might not be 100% coaster, but it does have a decent coaster portion, and this might become a new, more well-known type of coaster that we come to know.

But if you still don’t count it as a credit, then I hope the other two Journey’s aren’t on your list either since they use a similar ride system.
