[edit] Story

Below is the text that was on a plaque outside Suspended Animation.[2]

SUSPENDED ANIMATION
Navigational Pleasure Graphics Ltd.
1924
Island founder and graphics connoisseur Merriweather Adam Pleasure rocked the art world when he lured R. North Camilpoter, America's premier gold leaf stylist to Orlando. Camilpoter spent his days peacefully hand-painting the bows of the yachts Pleasure refurbished. When Hurricane Charlotte damaged the building in 1944 only three years after his patron's demise, the graphic artist was too dispirited to rebuild.
History buffs: The incredible and unverifiable story of Pleasure Island is summarized for your entertainment at each Island entrance.
