Author: wayne vegas from Sin City

Wonderful short from the finest comedy team, ever. The boys, looking to cut out the "middle man" from their fish peddling, decide to invest in a boat. They find a suitable one at a junk yard, decide to fix it up, and then the wackiness ensues. Wonderful little film that shows what two comedic masterminds can do with absolutely no plot.
