Cabot is a rather scruffy and rough ship with no self control, who did not care about safety until Theodore helped him. He often does the opposite of what everyone tells him. Like several other visiting ships to the Big Harbour, Cabot proved no exception to the rule of being rude and rather above his dock! However, like all of his kind, he got his just desserts when he dropped his cargo overboard which Theodore had to rescue, and ended up getting stuck on the Sandy Beach! To prevent any further mishaps, Theodore towed the reckless ship backwards.
According to the Harbour Master, Cabot has learned his lesson from his reckless behavior and visits the Big Harbour from time to time.
