Has it been announced when Mako at Sea World or Cobra's Curse at Busch Gardens will be opening. Hoping for mid April but the only information I've found says sometime in 2016. Thanks.

Mako's signs at seaworld say Summer 2016. From looking at the coaster from I-drive; they aren't done pouring foundations or piecing the coaster together. So, I would still plan on sometime for Summer 2016.

They topped out Mako in early January, a good sign. imo will be pushing to have it in place early smmer to get a good piece of the Orlando summer gate, especially with Kong's scheduled opening...likely a race to the finish line of sorts for the two parks

Mako will possibly be June/July (as there is a Passholder preview in June)

A Bolligar and Maballard coaster called Banshee was completed in 9 months during the winter of 2013-2014 here in Ohio. Macco has many of the same elements and uses the B&M patented beams. If they can do it in 9 months in Ohio I wouldn't rule out being Macco being open by June or July at the latest. They can work all year round every day. Not the case in Ohio in winter.
