From Steve Birnbaum brings you the best of Disneyland 1982:
Though far from being the most exciting of Disneyland's offerings for most adults, visitors with children often call this a favorite attraction. The faces of the youngsters as they steer the small three-passenger craft through the channels underneath the freeways are the equal of any Disney-made show. The names on the boats are those of favorite Disney characters.
From March 15, 1991-November, 10, 1991 Motor Boat Cruise was redecorated to be Motor Boat Cruise to Gummi Glen.
