None of this makes a lick of sense. Tom Sawyer island is under-utilized because it’s an island. You need to take a boat ride to get on and off it which severely limits the number of visitors per hour you can handle. Putting a popular new ride there would not work.

I agree that it wouldn’t make much sense if you had to take a boat to the island in order to get on the new ride. But maybe that’s not what they have in mind? For comparison, in Disneyland Paris the Big Thunder Mountain ride is mostly on an island but you board the ride on the mainland and it passes through a tunnel.
