Queen Riverboat was a Boat Ride that previously operated at Adventureland in Altoona, Iowa, USA.

History

The boat first functioned as a transport vessel in Spirit Lake and then in Lake Okoboji near Arnolds Park, Iowa, USA. It was sold to Adventureland in May 1973, despite local pushback.[1]

The ride operated at Adventureland through 1979 or later. The boat also remained as a static attraction after it closed as a ride.

Posts remain in the water from where the boat once docked.
