Captain Horatio Turbot (usually identified as Cap'n Turbot) is the PAW Patrol's most frequent caller who serves as an official member of the team in the Merpup-themed special episodes. He is a smart marine biologist and the watchman of Adventure Bay. His main vehicles are a boat called the Flounder and an orange diving bell.
Cap'n Turbot lives in the lighthouse on Seal Island with his cousin Francois. He is the PAW Patrol's best human friend and their source of information on all kinds of wildlife in the bay. He is known for his tendency to speak alliteratively and use complicated terms, which Ryder often has to simplify for the pups.
Bio
Cap'n Turbot is a smart marine biologist who talks with a nasally voice and loves to use long, alliterative words. Along with his role as the watchman of Adventure Bay, he does research on the types of animals living in the area. His specialty is underwater discoveries, which he makes using his boat and diving bell. He is also in charge of taking censuses of land creatures like owls, as shown in "Pups Save a Lucky Collar".
Cap'n Turbot is an inventor and he is always trying to improve the ways he researches nature. He has invented a few of his own machines: Seabee, a talking computer that can drive his diving bell by itself, and Blimpie, a weather blimp that monitors the weather around Adventure Bay. He is constantly upgrading the Flounder with new tech. It begins as a small single-person tugboat in season one, and upgrades into a more colorful boat for multiple passengers in season two.
