Merge.png It has been suggested that this article or section be merged with Outside the Ancient Ruins.
The reason given for the merge is: This is really just a section of a stage. It isn't really a significant element of the plot discussed on the Dojo like the Subspace Gunship is, and it seems to short to work as an aritcle. (Discuss)
Smash Skiff

The Smash Skiff (フライングプレート, Flying Plate in Japan) is a computer-controlled platform used by the Subspace Army. It is about the size of Final Destination and appears to be used as a transport, although its lack of rails or internal storage space is curious.

In The Swamp and Outside the Ancient Ruins, the Smash Skiff was seen carrying a captured Donkey Kong to the Isle of Ancients. Diddy Kong, Captain Falcon, and Olimar ambushed the troops on it, freed DK, and rode the Skiff into the Subspace Bomb Factory as they fight some enemies on the way.
