Pente games which could go in a Boat Pente DB?

How many Pente games can be found in which every move from beginning to end would be a valid Boat Pente game - in other words, Boat rules would not change the outcome of the line?
Here is an example of a near miss game, where P2 needs to make one additional move at the end in order to prevail in Boat. I'm relatively sure that many games involving few captures would qualify, but there are definitely exceptions to that rule of thumb, as I've mentioned elsewhere in the forum. Feel free to add examples of games which would qualify in their entirety. And interesting near misses, too
Retired from TB Pente, but still playing live games & exploring variants like D, poof and boat
