ABSTRACT:
A water activity toy including a main channel portion for a stream of water, and the channel having a siding which distends one side of the channel. A gate or wall is pivotally supported on a pivot post in the main channel and is operable between an upstream-downstream orientation, which directs the main water flow through the main channel portion for floating a vessel through the main channel portion and an orientation transverse to the main channel portion which diverts the main water flow into the siding and floats the vessel into the siding. The gate is also operable to the upstream-downstream orientation with the vessel in the siding for retaining the vessel in the siding. The siding may be a harbor for the vessel. An impeller moves the water in a stream through the main channel.
