Review: works fine makes the pirate raft more exciting! - it's a good thing to have my 4 year old loves it, fits great on the pirate raft! I did find ours went backwards at first when I first turned it on (which has nothing to do with direction of motor as it can only slot on the bottom of the raft one direction) it's to do with which way round you put the battery in believe it or not so I took the battery out and turned it around put it back together now it goes forward! sends raft zooming up and down the bath tub.
Review: Fits perfectly on Playmobile boat - Fits perfectly under Playmobile boat.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this item work on the pirate ship?**
A: Yes, it's recommended as the one to use on the pirate ship Red Serpent #5618 and will clip easily to the bottom.

**Q: What is the difference between this one and the $11 one. Is it a lot more powerful?**
A: This one isn't $11...It's  really really really powerful though. Wear safety glasses and have a huge bath or pool. (This IS playmobil we're talking about right?).

**Q: Will this fit my playmobil viking boat model?**
A: Not the Viking Longboat, but will on the Dragon boat.

**Q: does this motor work with the animal ark**
A: If I remember correctly, the 5159 was replaced by the 7350.  It's the same motor but believe it had an updated design to prevent leaks.  According to the Animal Ark information you can upgrade it by purchasing the 7350 Motor.  I would this that this would work with it.  You could also call PlayMobil USA for more information 1-800-752-9662.
