"Board Bowser's Sub" is the first mission of Dire, Dire Docks in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS.

Layout[edit]

Dire, Dire Docks Star 1
A view of Bowser's Sub

The Power Star for this mission is located on the deck of Bowser's Sub. To get to it, the player must first swim to the second area of the course through the tunnel, then climb onto the boardwalk along the wall. Pressing the Purple Switch causes some blocks to appear, and the player can use them as platforms to reach the top of the Sub. The Power Star is on the opposite side. In Super Mario 64 DS, a Blaster is added to the Sub.

Collecting this Power Star opens the way to Bowser in the Fire Sea. Once Bowser in the Fire Sea is completed, the Sub moves out of Dire, Dire Docks through the newly opened hole. However, the Power Star remains and can still be collected with a well-executed jump from the poles. In the DS version, collecting this Star after the Sub leaves is easier by using either Yoshi's Flutter Kick, Luigi's scuttle, or Mario's balloon ability.
