Recommendation: meh 4.4 / 5 by WesternOutlaw

4642 is not just a Fishing Boat, it's a floatable fishing boat. It's not Jack Stone, but it's quality design, nice colors, and nice pieces. The build took me about 10 minutes and I enjoyed it. I can't wait to break out a Series 3 Fisherman to bring a friend along.

There aren't many pieces in this one. It is full though. It could keep a child busy for a while. It comes with the boat, a shark, 2 minifigures, fishing rod and fish, and is a pretty decent size for a child to use their imagination with. Recommend as a great Lego starter set for a child or as a gift. Very easy to build. Some different pieces with the boat. The shark is different slightly from older versions of the Lego shark. The jaw shuts tight. Also the life preservers are different and newer than what is shown in the picture which is pretty cool. They are square and more realistic looking. I've never really had that happen to me on any Lego set in the past.
