The inept Ensign Garland (
Robert Morse) battles a trio of jewel thieves in this Walt Disney comedy. Garland starts by spilling paint on the lovely Kate Fairchild (Stephanie Powers). Harry (
Phil Silvers), Max (
Norman Fell) and Charlie (
Mickey Shaughnessy) try to recover the jewels accidentally dumped by Garland into a picnic basket. Garland's superior is Commander Taylor (
Don Ameche), who hounds the harried ensign for being a constant bumbler. Jason Bennett (
Wally Cox) is the playboy who has replaced his yacht engine with a wine cellar. Character actors Joe E. Ross and
Al Lewis witness the sight gags and react to the seafaring shenanigans. ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide
