I remember seeing a local TV news story on the Lanc soon after it was put up in that park. The person being interviewed stated it was the original intent to remove the Merlins and sell them to hydroplane owners. However, they discovered that it could not be balanced on the pedestal without their weight, so they had to stay!
It's time to bring it down for proper care...
