Are you planning to sail on the Reservoir boat in Blue Prince? While you might think that this is a quaint activity that leads to a bit of sightseeing, it's actually a fairly convoluted task that requires visiting multiple locations. Don't worry, since we've got you covered with all the details. Just watch out because this article contains a few spoilers.
How to sail on the Reservoir boat in Blue Prince
You can sail on the Reservoir boat by altering the water levels via the Pump Room. This is easier said than done because (a) you don't know what those water levels are, and (b) you still need to make changes in the Pump Room itself.
In any case, we've outlined our guide to mention the clues first, just in case you want to solve things on your own. After this section, we then talk about how to complete the objective.
Note: This whole process requires the use of the Pump Room. Don't worry even if you don't have enough steps to make it back to the Reservoir from the Pump Room. The configuration that you set it to will be retained across multiple days/runs until you make changes.
Reservoir water levels clue
If you want to ride the Reservoir boat in Blue Prince, then you might be interested in the clue that informs you about the water levels. This is found in the Underground just past the Red Door. Rotate the giant gear so you can reach the other side of the area. There, look at the window pane to see the water levels. The most important ones are:
- Dock level: 13
- Entry level: 6
- Fully drain: 0
Note: Think of the Reservoir's water levels as akin to a math problem. If full, the Reservoir has 14 pips/levels (+14). We have to bring it down to 13 first (dock level), and then 6 (entry level).
