Net a Fish Boats Guide: Cost, Upgrades, and Helpers

What Does the Boat Do?

Your boat catches fish while you keep working your net. Net a Fish boats are automated fishing helpers, giving you another way to bring in catches alongside your Fisherman and Spear Gun. The boat heads out to fish on its own, so you don’t need to steer it.

Think of it as another piece of your dock’s fishing setup. You can continue casting and reeling while the boat handles its own catches. Buying one adds another helper; upgrading it gives you another place to invest your fishing income.

How to Buy and Upgrade Your Boat

The boat costs 25k in-game cash to purchase at your dock. Its upgrades include an Engine upgrade.

To get started:

1. Collect cash from the fish displayed in your pool.
2. Head to the boat purchase spot at your dock.
3. Buy the boat for 25k.
4. Open its upgrade options and purchase the upgrades you can afford, including Engine.
5. Keep casting your net while the boat goes fishing.

Check the boat’s upgrade options again as your income grows. It’s easy to spend everything on nets and forget that your helpers have upgrades available, too.

Keep the purchase separate from the premium passes: the boat itself is an in-game cash purchase. Turbo Helpers and Helpers Luck are additional Robux purchases that affect it.

Fit Boat Upgrades Into Your Fishing Routine

Your dock has several systems competing for the same cash: nets, the Fisherman, the Spear Gun, and the boat. Keep each purchase tied to what you need next.

• Keep casting after buying the boat. Its automated fishing runs alongside your manual net fishing.
• Upgrade your net when it cannot hold the fish you’re trying to catch. Owning a boat doesn’t replace the need for a stronger net.
• Use Equip Best when managing your displayed fish. Fish in your pool generate cash every second, which funds more upgrades.
• Revisit helper upgrades between net purchases. Check the boat, Fisherman, and Spear Gun instead of overlooking them while saving for another net.

Fish management also includes fusing catches in your cooler. The fusion ladder starts with 10 fish becoming a Shiny, followed by 8 Shiny becoming a Gold. Use the cooler’s fusion options when you have enough fish, then use Equip Best again to manage your display.

Rebirth also belongs in your planning: it resets your money and unlocks new worlds and bigger rewards. Read the rebirth screen before committing, especially when you’re close to affording another upgrade.

Which Game Passes Affect the Boat?

Two helper passes specifically include the boat:

• Turbo Helpers — 499 Robux: The Fisherman, Boat and Spear Gun work 50% faster and bring in double the fish.
• Helpers Luck — 499 Robux: Gives 2x luck to the Spear Gun, Fisherman, and Boat.

Choose between them based on the effect you want: faster helper work with more fish, or increased helper luck. Both apply across all three listed helpers, so consider your whole dock setup when deciding whether to spend Robux.

Auto Throw — 29 Robux serves a different role: it automatically casts your net while you’re inside your base. Buy it for net automation; use the helper passes when you want bonuses that specifically include the boat.

For the cash collection side of your dock, Auto Collect — 49 Robux automatically collects money from your showcase. 2x Money — 399 Robux doubles the money earned from showcased fish, while Extra Showcase (+3 slots) — 299 Robux adds three showcase slots at your base. Compare those effects with the helper bonuses before choosing a purchase.

For cooler automation, Auto Fuse — 199 Robux fuses fish whenever a stack reaches the required amount and continues through the fusion ladder. Use it to automate that inventory task while your boat, Fisherman, and Spear Gun handle their fishing jobs and you continue working your net.
