Mrs. Puff's Boating School

Mrs. Puff's Boating School is the drivers' education school in Bikini Bottom run by Mrs. Puff in the animated series SpongeBob SquarePants.

Exams

There are two exams that must be completed correctly, and with an excellent grade in order to graduate and obtain a license.

Oral Exam: The Oral Exam consists of ten questions, many of them simple, such as asking the name of the front of the boat. In the 1999 episode "Boating School," Mrs. Puff starts his exam with an "oral test." She is only able to ask three questions; SpongeBob has the rest of the test memorized.

• Question 1: What is the front of the boat? The bow.
• Question 2: What is the back of the boat? The stern.
• Question 3: "Right" is? Starboard...
  (From this point, SpongeBob gives the answers without Mrs. Puff's questions; the questions listed are only speculation as to what she might've asked.)
• Answer: port; question 4: "Left" is?
• Answer: Skipper; question 5: Who is the person in command of a boat?
• Answer: deck; question 6: What is the floor level of a ship?
