I know that it's NOT the swinging ship we see in the background at the end of the game. That's because swinging ships don't rotate; they swing. One ride that I KNOW rotates is the Wipeout. So, I figure that this Madly Rotating Buccaneer is a pirate-themed Wipeout ride. The "madly rotating" name comes from the ride's action: it not only rotates; it also tilts at a steep angle and fluctuates in a wavelike manner. These rides are commonly found at fairs and traveling carnivals. They're not so commonly found as permanent fixtures at amusement parks or theme parks.
