GLOUCESTER, Mass. — SpongeBob SquarePants usually needs to be saved in the cartoon he stars in on Nickelodeon.

But for a group of sinking boaters in Gloucester Harbor, the sponge-shaped yellow character was the one who did the saving over the weekend, MyFOXBoston reported.

A 25-foot boat called the Clam Juice started sinking because of a crack in the exhaust pipe. When the Coast Guard arrived to pump the little vessel out, the four onboard were knee-deep in water.

That's where SpongeBob — or more specifically, a squishy SpongeBob football — came in. The occupants had the toy onboard and used it to plug up the hole in the pipe.

Meanwhile. another boat was blown to oblivion after the crew members decided to play with a Squidward doll.

SpongeBob is a guilty pleasure of mine. Just don't tell anyome!
