*Cap'n Turbot's unique design, with black bead eyes and a big nose, was based on the design of Bob the Builder (Keith Chapman created both characters).https://www.thethings.com/paw-patrol-ryder-pups-facts/
**As a result, Cap'n Turbot (and his family) are the only characters in PAW Patrol with black bead eyes. All other characters, including those with glasses, have realistic eyes. However, in PAW Patrol: The Movie, the Turbots are given realistic eyes to match the film's more detailed character designs, but their eyeballs are smaller than the other characters.

*Cap'n Turbot has strange tastes when it comes to food and often uses seafood (such as squid or fish) in his the food he makes. Most characters such as Ryder, Mayor Goodway, and even the pups at times are shown to politely refuse the food he makes or provides due to his odd tastes, especially his odd taste for seafood-based items as they often find the ingredients (squid and fish) to be gross and/or unappetizing. Only Cali, Kitten Catastrophe Crew, Wally, Walinda, Baby walrus pup, Seagulls and the penguins are shown to enjoy the food/treats he makes, due to their love of seafood and/or fish. Cap'n Turbot seems unaware that his taste in food is strange and will freely offer it to others.
