'''Pa-Patch''' is a large purple [[Bob-omb]] and one of the sailors seen frequently in [[Rogueport]] harbor. He is arguably the toughest of the sailors there, but he is not without a caring side. Unlike most Bob-ombs, his wind-up key is an arrangement of bones. He joins [[Mario]] on his quest to [[Keelhaul Key]], along with [[Admiral Bobbery]] and their self-described intrepid leader [[Flavio]]. Arguments regularly break out between him and Flavio, so Pa-Patch takes a shining to Mario instead.

Pa-Patch only made this decision after he was sure there were no ghosts left, as even he was afraid of them.
