The year was 1962. Teens twist at the Peppermint Lounge. John Glenn orbits Earth. Wilt Chamberlain scores 100 points in a single game. And Elvis Presley digs the possibilities of Girls! Girls! Girls!. This time he's a charter-boat skipper who helps tourists land the big ones. Of course, plenty of beautiful girls (Including Stella Stevens) want to land Elvis. But there's something Elvis likes almost as much as romance--a boat! He yearns for a sleek sailboat with a $10,000 price tag. Let's see, that makes him about $9,999 short!
Editor's Note
Elvis stars as Ross Carpenter, a fishing guide. Trouble arises for him when he has to get his dad's fishing boat out of hock by singing songs in a local dive. As usual, he's besieged by girls, too, including a Laurel, a little rich girl spending the summer by the shore, and Robyn, a tough club singer. Features a slew of great songs, including "Return to Sender," "A Boy Like Me, A Girl Like You," "Never Let Me Go," and "The Nearness of You," "I Don't Want To," "Because of Love," "Song of the Shrimp," and the title tune.
