The Thousand Islands serve as background for this picture. It is a comedy and has a good many laughs, which come from the antics of "Wise Willie's" motor boat. What he knew about machinery didn't count for much. The fact that he owned the boat helped him to cut out the girl's sweetheart, but when he took her for a ride he couldn't even get the boat started, till a youngster rowing past explained it to him. He got it started, then he couldn't steer it. It jumped over a rocky island, did the corkscrew turn like a merry-go-round, and spilled the girl overboard. She was happily rescued by her sweetheart. The boat, after a while, landed, bounded up the road and threw Willie out in front of the hotel veranda. - The Moving Picture World, November 25, 1911
