The Fisher-Price Imaginext Ocean Boat is a well-crafted toy boat that will captivate junior seafarers' active imaginations. It features dozens of movable parts, including a deployable submarine, that will allow your child to explore the sea at all depths. Designed for ages 3 and up, the Ocean Boat will immerse your child in the biggest ocean of all -- their imagination. 
This toy boat will take your child on an imaginary high-seas adventure. View larger. | Great for Imaginative Play
With its nautical blue-and-yellow paint scheme and sturdy construction, the Ocean Boat looks and feels like it was made for high-seas adventure. It comes with three Imaginext-style figures, each with their own outfit and scuba gear. The figures have rotatable arms and legs, and their hands are shaped to grasp numerous objects throughout the ship. The ship is full of movable parts, giving the boat a realistic touch. Spin a dial on top, for instance, and the ship's doors will fling open. Rolling the ship along on a hard surface will spin the ship's propellers and satellite dishes in unison. There is also an opening cargo hold with translucent doors, a life-saver launcher, a rotating crane for deploying the submarine, and more. The accessory submarine comes with spinning propellers and rotating arms. Unfortunately, the boat wasn't designed for water play. Although it might be tempting to take it in the pool or bathtub, it will probably capsize the moment you try to float it. An Enjoyable and Educational Adventure
The boat also comes with four deep-sea animal figures: a king crab, an eel, a cuttlefish, and an anglerfish. Kids will enjoy learning about these fascinating creatures with their parents. Another great aspect of the Ocean Boat is its broad appeal. Suggested for three- to eight-year-olds, it is sturdy and intuitive enough for younger audiences, but nuanced and complex enough that it will still fascinate older children.

We bought this for a bath toy. It does NOT float. Ironically, the sub on it does float. Our boy is having lots of fun with it on the floor, and it's a great toy.
AWSOME FUN! October 18, 2009

We purchased this ship for our 3 year old son. We have several Imaginext toys and this one is by far is the best one that we have purchased. It is very fun and interesting and he just loves it. The quality, functionality, and educational value is exceptional. The boat and all of the accessories are very well made and will last for many years. The transaction through Amazon went very smoothly and the shipping time was faily fast. Would highly recomend this toy to anyone.
 Fun to share October 15, 2009

This toy is complex and large enough to be easily shared between my 6 and 4 year-old nephews.
 Durable toy, some design flaws. September 28, 2009

I agree with other reviewers in that the ocean boat is durable and sufficiently complex and realistic to satisfy ages 3-8. It comes with a one-man submersible, and this item is poorly designed -- the "hook" for pulling it back onto the ship is set into the hatch of the sub. Our experience is that every time you try to hoist the sub, the hatch simply pops open. It has been frustrating for my son. We attached another hook, not on the hatch, but it is not at the proper balance point on the sub, so you then have to "help" it over the rail for deployments and retrievals. I hope Fisher-Price fixes this design flaw in the next version! Otherwise, we are quite pleased with the boat and accessories, although we do wish that some of the action figures were female.
Great addition to any Imaginext collection... August 5, 2009

My son received this for his 4th birthday and really likes it. It has translucent doors in the bottom of the boat and a compartment for storing their little "catches." I love that it has the additional little romer vehicle for skimming the bottom of the ocean. It's nice to be able to tell your child about these things and show them how they would work in real life and what exactly they do and what each of the included sea creatures are called. I found it pretty educational. As with most Imaginext items, this is extremely durable, it has wheels on the bottom and when you push the boat alond the little satellite thing spins around. It's very realistic. I would definitely recommend this to anyone with a young child.
