We've been using this toy for over a year, and it still looks and works like new. The various moving parts provide lots of fun activities. As the child gets older, he/she will find new things to do with it, such as running water from the faucet onto the wheel to make it spin. Be sure to submerge it once at the start of bathtime so it floats properly.

My husband got this for my son for his first birthday. It makes a great in the bath as well as out of the bath toy! He enjoyed playing with it mostly out of the bath for about 6 months and has rediscovered it as a new and exciting bathtoy. The squirting octopus is the best!

This toy is an over-priced flop. The water canon is really hard to pump, the boat floats poorly and the little boat never floats right with the pirate in it - causing much frustration for my 2 year old. It's also one of those toys where all of the components fill with water, never dry out between baths and therefore can grow gross stuff inside. Spend your money more wisely...

This is a nice boat for in the bath tub. We have had this toy for over a year now, and my son of 3.5 years old still likes to play with it, he especially likes to squirt the cannon. This toy definitely invokes imaginary play and the several components have held up quite nicely, nothing is broken yet. I rated it four stars because the little boat tumbles off the big ship very easily. It would be nice if that specific feature could be redesigned.

My son played with this bath toy for many months. Kept him entertained while he took a bath. Great product.

Our son loves this pirate ship. He launches the boat and pirate off the plank and squirts the octapus. Just remember to fully drain the ship before taking it out of the tub.

Fast-forward to 2011 and this boat is still getting bathtime use - by 3&6yr olds!

My son received this toy as a gift during a trip to see his grandparents. We were so excited for him to play with it once we got home. Just look at all the fun features! What a disappointment once we finally got it in the bath.

First of all, it's very top-heavy, so it constantly capsizes. You have to fill the boat with water in order for it to float, and even then it only stays upright most of the time. Secondly, the water canon requires a lot of effort for very little payoff (the same can be said for the water wheel). You have to either submerge the whole boat or use some other item to fill the canon with water. Then once you flick the lever, it lets out a weak little spurt and you get to start all over. As others have mentioned, the raft doesn't float correctly if the pirate is in it. The only feature that is any fun at all is the octopus, and even with that, you have to hold the boat with one hand while pumping the octopus with the other so the boat doesn't capsize.

This toy is clunky and boring and useless. Then I come to find out it sells for $19.99?? Ridiculous. I wouldn't pay $4.99 for it.

All I can say is the plastic pieces were colorful, the octopus squirted about 3", the canon watergun shot about 1/2" after it was throughly submerged in water. the whole thing was about as amusing as the washcloth in the tub with our grandson. Don't waste your time with this, get an old plastic milk bottle if you want some great reactions. This was boring and sat at the end of the tub, unplayed with. Maybe the pirate should take the porcelin bowl tour for better adventures.

My son received this as a gift and it's just awful. Yes, I submerged it but it still doesn't float properly. The canon has never worked and the octopus barely squirts at all. This is just a lame duck toy, period.

This toy was a waste of $$ for our little one, I do not recommend it to anyone. The squirting parts do not work well on ours, and it is big and bulky. Just not worth buying in my opinion.
