The '''Rusty Bucket''' is a recurring object in the [[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|''Banjo-Kazooie'' series]].
The '''Rusty Bucket''' is a large cargo ship and the main feature of [[Rusty Bucket Bay]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. It appears as a large cargo ship in an extremely polluted industrial harbor. Its main deck is covered with [[Flotsam]]s and [[Grimlet]]s. It also contains a number of rooms and cabins. Other features such as whistles, ladders, smokestacks and coolers are also found on deck.


==Features and overview==
==Rooms==
The Rusty Bucket is a large [[wikipedia:cargo ship|cargo ship]] owned by [[Gruntilda]],<ref>''Banjo-Kazooie'' instruction booklet, page 30</ref><ref>''Banjo-Kazooie'' Official Player's Guide, page 97</ref> being the namesake of [[Rusty Bucket Bay]]. It contains many rooms, such as the [[Engine Room]], the [[Anchor Room]], the [[the Hold|Hold]], the [[Captain's Cabin]], the [[Map Room]], the [[Shipmate's Quarters]] and the [[The Galley|Galley]].
===Engine Room===
The [[Engine Room]] is commonly dubbed the hardest area to navigate in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]''. It is a large room containing giant cogs and gears. The player is required to press a button in an adjoining room to slow the fan blades in order to get a [[Jiggy]]. If the two switches are hit, then the ship's propellers will stop for 65 seconds allowing the player to get the [[Jiggy]] from behind them. This is often referred to by players as the hardest [[Jiggy]] to acquire in the game. The threat of falling, constantly moving parts, and difficult enemies are what supposedly makes it so hard.

===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
===Anchor Room===
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', the Rusty Bucket can be found in Rusty Bucket Bay. Many [[Jiggy|Jiggies]] can be collected through it, such as the one atop the ship's highest point, the one collected by blowing the right whistles in it or many of the ones found within its individual rooms. Various enemies can also be found throughout the ship, such as the [[Grimlet]]s, [[Flotsam]]s, [[Seaman Grublin|Seamen Grublins]], [[Boom Box]]es and [[Grille Chompa]]s.  
The [[Anchor Room]] is a room located in the hull of the ship. Underneath the ship the player will find a dolphin named [[Snorkel]] trapped under an anchor. The dolphin asks that [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] release him by hitting the Anchor Switch. In order for the player to reach the Anchor Switch, he or she must climb into the hole in which the Anchor is stored, make their way passed a line of [[Grille Chompa]]s and hit the anchor switch, thus freeing [[Snorkel]] and getting a [[Jiggy]].


A [[dolphin]] named [[Snorkel]] can be found trapped under the ship's anchor, and saving him rewards [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] with a [[Jiggy]]. [[Boss Boom Box]] can also be fought inside of the ship's rooms, accessible by dropping a [[wikipedia:TNT|TNT]] box on the it.  
===Cargo Hold===
To enter the ship's [[The Hold|Cargo Hold]], the player must release a box of TNT into it by the use of a nearby cargo crane. Once the box has been dropped in, the player may jump into the hold to reveal that the box of TNT was in fact the [[Boss Boom Box]]. The player must defeat the Boss Boom Box in order to receive a [[Jiggy]].

===Other rooms===

The ''Rusty Bucket'' also contains [[The Captain's Quarters]], a Map Room, a Bunk Room, [[The Galley|a Galley]], and a room containing numerous pipes.

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', the Rusty Bucket appears as an exhibit of [[Banjoland]]. It is fairly damaged, containing a large hole in it that leads to what is presumably the Engine Room. This is often used as a path in many of the park's races.

{{Quote|This ship was the basis for an entire ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' level, [[Rusty Bucket Bay]]. The [[Jiggy]] in the bowels was one of the most difficult in the game. Far too challenging for today's soft gamers!|Banjoland description}}
A model of the front half of the Rusty Bucket appears in [[Banjoland]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', as an exhibit with a huge hole in the hold, which rather comically features a message stating that it was too hardcore for today's modern players. The model of the ship has three chimneys, instead of the two. The real ''Rusty Bucket'' appears in the background when looking out past the Docks in [[Showdown Town]] (except it is missing a smokestack, due, surely, given the low graphics level in Showdown Town's backgrounds).

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*On a [[Banjo-Kazooie Promo Video|promotional video of ''Banjo-Kazooie'']] given to [[Nintendo Power]] subscribers, narrator [[wikipedia:Jon Lovitz|Jon Lovitz]] refers to the Rusty Bucket as the "'''H.M.S. Gruntilda'''."
*Rumor suggests that [[Captain Blackeye]] captains the ''Rusty Bucket'', but it is more likely he would captain a traditional pirate ship as per his original role. It is much more likely that Grunty is the captain.
*Under the words "Rusty Bucket" written on the side of the ship, the name "[[wikipedia:Twycross|Twycross]], [[wikipedia:England|England]]" can be found. This is a reference to the city where [[Rare Ltd.]] is based on.  
*On the promotional video given to Nintendo Power subscribers prior to the game's release, narrator Jon Lovitz states that the name of the ship is the H.M.S. Gruntilda. This was either misinformation or an affectionate pseudonym, as the name ''Rusty Bucket'' can be seen on the stern of the ship in both ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'' (although the ship in [[Banjoland]] is only a model).
*Beneath the words "''Rusty Bucket''" on the stern of the ship is the name of the town "Twycross, England". The company [[Rareware]] that created the [[Banjo-Kazooie series|Banjo-Kazooie games]] is based in Twycross, England.
*In the Bunk Room, there is a poster of Berri from ''[[conkerwiki:Twelve Tales: Conker 64|Twelve Tales: Conker 64]]'', which was under development at the time. This was later changed to [[conkerwiki:Conker the Squirrel|Conker]], in his ''[[conkerwiki:Conker's Bad Fur Day|Bad Fur Day]]'' attire.
