Characters
Sydney Sailboat
The protagonist of the series.

He also has a front compartment where he keeps his set of tools which he uses in certain situations. His catchphrase is “Spinnaker, fly!” He is voiced by Samson Hyland.
Zip
She is Sydney's best friend, and a feisty, young female trainee water taxi who dreams of becoming the best water taxi in the whole harbor.[4] Her catchphrase is “Hoop-dee-doo!” She is voiced by Frederique Sims.
Terry
He is a strong male tugboat, who is the leader of the fleet, and keeps Bubble Bath Bay in order. His catchphrase is "Anchors aweigh!"[4] Voiced by Colin Friels.
