Boater

This article is about the Japanese Micromaster. For the American character derived from the same toy, see Seawatch.

Boater is sort of the little brother of the Rescue Patrol Team, ironic both because of their microstature and their equivalent ages. He is a bit of an odd bot out though which probably explains it. He loves to tease Holi about having a girlfriend but also wonders what it would be like to have one himself. Something to do with nuts and bolts, best not to think about it. The loooooooooooooooooooooove boat.

Crackhead English-Malay dub name: Seawatch

Boater had a very minor role and served mostly as background character. He was only seen with the other Rescue Patrol Team members evacuating Feminia from the Decepticons but couldn’t save Victory Saber in the process. Boater made another appearance to repair Victory Saber. Enter the New Supreme Commander, Dai Atlas!

Rescue Patrol Team (Micromaster Patrol 4-pack, 1990)

Japanese ID number: C-331

Boater transforms into a blue hydrofoil. He was sold as part of the Rescue Patrol Team, along with Holi, Fire, and Pīpō.

This toy is identical to Seawatch.

Notes[]

In the Victory anime, Holi and Boater (who are gang-molded) were consistently drawn and colored as if their black plastic parts had instead been produced in white. (Possibly Takara had plans at one point to release them in these colors, so that Holi would more closely resemble a Japanese highway patrol car. In Zone, however, both were finally colored to match their toys.)
