I think its funny that captain Ron drove the "Sara." she was involved in two collisions and a near miss. I not blaming captain Ron, I would blame "lack of maneuverability"
@MrFightingNaturalist, For me the humor in that line was always, Yes, of course small boats get out of the way of a war ship, then I learned that the Saratoga was sunk in Bikini Atoll durring a nuclear test in 1946 making it highly unlikely that Capt'n Ron was a helmsman for her. This added to the mystery of Capt'n Ron's background and was equally funny. To learn that the Sara was involved in collisions and near misses just adds to the many layers of the comedy, Still a favorite! Bill
@mygriffin There was a few ships with that name, and another aircraft carrier named USS Saratoga which was built in the late 50's and served into the early 90's. I am guessing that is the one he is talking about. The ship had a few issues, such as one of the F-14 Tomcats shooting down an american RF-4 Phantom II. Also firing anti-ship missiles at a friendly vessel, killing 5 on board. The ship is currently in Rhode Island sitting next to another carrier, both awaiting the scrapper. :(
This movie was one that inspired me to also buy a sailboat, a PDQ 32 catamaran. But I eats me spinich and can't park me boat like that no matter how much spinich I eats.
The boat used in this movie is a Formosa 51, although it appears modified to make it look like an all-wood boat. Three or four boats were used, one in the beginning of the movie when the boat is in horrible shape. One of the "good condition" boats ended up in Kemah, TX in the late 90s where it was available for day charters.
My wife and I quote Capt' Ron all the time. Number one quote... "Nobody Knows" Honerable mention, "Learned that in Rehab" and "If we get lost, we can just pull in somewheres and ask directions!"
Excellent seamanship.
