The Bikini Bottom Museum of Boating

After Mrs. Puff tells the class they will be going to the Boat Museum SpongeBob thinks he can impress her and get his drive license by understand more about boats. SpongeBob memorizes all of there is to know about the history of boating from a book called "All History of Boating Ever" for Mrs. Puff's museum field trip the next day. SpongeBob reads for so long that he falls asleep in the morning and misses thee bus, but catches up to it. Throughout the field trip Mrs. Puff tries to inform the class about boats. They instead listen to SpongeBob's information. At the end of the tour she notices SpongeBob is missing. SpongeBob finds the control room and turns on the Air Conditioner, which he thinks is the Starter Mechanism. The Air Conditioner blasts a powerful wave of air into SpongeBob's face, so he turns it to the direction of the real starter mechanism. The air current is so powerful that turns the key and starts the Boat Museum. Mrs. Puff then appears and starts to panic because she never drove anything so advanced. She pulls a lever which makes the boat go even faster. She tells SpongeBob to use the information he learned to stop the boat before it plows into [[Bikini Bottom}}. SpongeBob tells her he knows what to do and then flattens down the hatches, manually frees the anchor, utters a hardy sea man's laugh and performs a 720 degrees Tail-spin just in time for the boat to touch a building at the edge of the city. He and Mrs. Puff thought he was driving it the whole time. Mrs. Puff is very impressed with driving, and then Mrs. Puff starts to give him his driver's license until the museum owner shows up. He says SpongeBob was not driving it and then Mrs. Puff's anger returns and she tears up SpongeBob's diver's license. The owner gives SpongeBob an honorary Sea Legs badge for false bravery and offers to buy him an ice-cream. Spongebob notices that the head lights are on and goes back into the control room. Mrs. Puff and the museum owner warn him not to touch anything. Then the museum flips over and falls on Mrs. Puff and the owner.
