Jet Rescue, Steel roller coaster at Sea World, Gold Coast, Australia.
Jet Rescue is a steel roller coaster at Sea World on the Gold Coast that spans 560 meters of track. The ride features two launch sections and jet ski-style seating with lap bar restraints throughout its course.
Construction began in early 2008 and the ride opened on December 26, 2008. The project involved filling part of the park's Ski Lake with sand to create space for the attraction.
The ride tells a rescue mission story that connects visitors to the park's broader message about helping marine animals. This storytelling approach makes the experience about more than just speed and thrills.
Riders must be at least 1.25 meters tall to experience this attraction. The ride operates with two trains that each hold eight cars, allowing frequent departures for visitors.
The ride features an animatronic sea lion character that appears along the track as part of the rescue story. This detail gives the experience a narrative element that sets it apart from typical coasters.
