Does the boat float in the water (would it be ideal for bath play)?

Yes, It will float, but I believe it is not designed to be a bath toy. There are too many areas where moisture can get into and between blocks.

I wouldn't let if float in the water because of the batteries and motor. It says it's waterproof, but it feels more like an electric toy to me. Ours stopped working despite not having it in the water, but I've wondered if water might have been the cause of its demise. Either way, because of the batteries, it feels safest to me to have it suctioned and out of the water. You can certainly suction it to the bathtub to help your kiddo reach it.

I would not use this Gup in the tub. But there are lots of other Octonauts toys that are great for water. Hope that helps!

I suppose so. The catch is if you can figure out a way to suction it down to something, otherwise it will float around and could end up spraying out of the water.

Yes, it will float but I suggest you get some bright water proof tape to wrap around the handle because when it is the water it will be partially submerged and hard to see. I highly recommend this sup. I have enjoyed it so much this past summer have not been disappointed, a great board.....

My boys bring it in bathtub. It fills up with water and sinks but they have fun anyway.

Don't know...My son used to BEG us to put it in water, but there are stickers you put on the ship, and we don't want the stickers to start peeling. If I were to guess, I would say that it would float.

I wouldn't recommend it. This one will float if there is enough water in the tub, making it unstable. If you want to bathe the older child at the same time, it will be a tight fit. You could nathe the older child with the water inside the smaller inflatable tub.

No although my grandson did try to play with it in the tub but it floats and the cars all float so it didn't work.

It is sturdy and stable in the water as iths a flat bottom, but standing up in to climb into another craft would pose problems. You can kneel in the boatand conceivably do so reaching out and up to hold on to the edge(gunnals?) of the boat along side,but difference in height might mean you would need helping hands. Once leanin or sittingon the side of the intex,it will quicky want to tilt. it isn't a true dinghy.

INTENDED to go in water? Probably not. But I don't think water would HURT it, either. The tail is cloth, it would get wet. But my kiddo would play with it in the bath.

From what I remember...No. It is the best, most well made boat there is! They even sell a small motor that can slide on the bottom of this boat and it can move around in bathtub. My grandson is 3 1/2 and have been playing with this is tub for over 2yrs. All playmobil is awesome.

I wouldn't put it in the bathtub. The whale and the play rings are pretty large in size and might not fit the sides of the tub.

Yes this will float on the water if you accidentally drop it in since it has air inside it and the air doesn't easily get out (it will not instantly sink like a rock). However, I did a test on it (seeing your question) and if you leave it in for a while, it will start filling the inside with water and start sinking (I left it for an hour and it was 1/2 filled).

The small pieces do float, but they are small. The boat is not as big as I thought, about ten inches long. I bought this for my grandchildren ages 9, 7 & 5 and they love playing with it in the pool and out of the pool.

Yes, this one floats on top of the water well with the least amount of drag out of all our tubes. You should be fine, even with this smaller boat, as long as your rider(s) are within the tube's weight limit.
