Editor's Note
Produced by Tim Burton, this slapstick sea voyage a la "Captains Courageous" is about a pampered rich kid who, due to a mix-up, ends up on rusty old bucket instead of the luxury liner he was supposed to take to Hawaii. The crew doesn't take to his superior airs and assigns him the worst chores.
