Boater is an Autobot in the Victory era of the Generation 1 continuity family.

Clumsy on land, he should just sit this one out back in the water.

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

Fiction

Victory cartoon

• Rocket Base (Micromaster base, 1990)

Japanese ID number: C-330

The Micromaster Rocket Base set (the Takara release of Countdown's base) included Boater and the other members of the Rescue Patrol, as well as Countdown's Japanese counterpart, Moonradar.

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

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.

Trivia

• 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.)
