The Coal Cracker shares space with several newer rides, including the SooperDooperLooper (built in 1977) and the Great Bear (1998). Riders' photographs are taken midway through the drop. A second lift carries riders above the Twin Turnpike ride, preparing them for the final 35-degree, 49-foot (15 m) drop. Once the fiberglass boat has ascended the first lift hill, riders are only 55 feet (17 m) off the ground. Riders are seated in 12-foot (3.7 m) boats for the three and a half minute ride along a water channel over 2,000-foot (610 m) long. It has a unique layout, due to the terrain features of this part of the park. The ride was installed by Arrow Development in 1973, making it the oldest water ride at Hersheypark still in daily operation.
