The second ride manufactured by Robinson Partners, the Sky Ranger Spaceship was released in 1954. It was made for many years and, while the design itself didn't change much over time, the name and colours did vary. Other names included "Trip To The Moon" and "Space Traveller".
Watermouth Castle, Ilfracombe, September 2023. I was thrilled when I found this ride as I had no idea it was even at Watermouth Castle prior to out visit, and it's the only time I've ever seen one of these in the flesh. Alas, the lighting in the arcade was AWFUL. Still very pleased to have the film and to have been able to document the ride for the website, but wish it has been located somewhere that I could have got a clearer video.
