Moving boats[1] appear around Delfino Plaza in Super Mario Sunshine. They resemble wooden gondolas and are not to be confused with the smaller mudboats found in Noki Bay and Corona Mountain, nor the large variety of boats moored at Ricco Harbor or beached at Gelato Beach. According to in-game text, they are used for ferrying passengers and fruit between Delfino Plaza and Delfino Airstrip; the D.E.B.S. refers to them collectively as "the fruit freighter."

At the beginning of the game, the boats are still. After six Shine Sprites are collected and Bianco Hills, Ricco Harbor, and Gelato Beach are all made accessible, the boats start moving in pre-defined paths. They can be used to reach the two islands around Delfino Plaza without swimming or taking the sewer, and are also useful in accessing the Pachinko Game and Lily Pad Ride secret levels. The former is simplest to reach by jumping off the nearer boat's roof while under a building that stretches across the water. To reach the latter area, both boats must be ridden on with Yoshi, stopping at a wooden stack south of the plaza where their routes intersect.

Once Corona Mountain has been accessed once, another boat appears moored near the boathouse. Speaking to the Pianta nearby allows Mario to return to Delfino Airstrip. A few of these boats can be found there as well during this trip.
