    Storyline

    • Trivia
      The production was granted permission to shoot on the USN aircraft carrier the USS Kitty Hawk. As such, because of this, studio head Walt Disney scheduled the film's world premiere on the ship with its crew being the only invited guests.
    • Goofs
      Through the entire movie, Rob had the whistle around his neck, but he lost everything in the raft except his toothbrush. However, there are various pieces that continue to float around him, and it's not until after he has ransacked the sub that the whistle actually makes its first appearance, making it more likely he got the whistle from the sub.
    • Quotes

      Lt. Robin Crusoe: [Using a home-made bamboo sextant] According... to... my... calculations, I'm somewhere between Elmira, New York, and Muncie, Indiana.

    Light as a feather, Walt Disney offering.
    Another very enjoyable but light as a feather, Disney movie. Dick Van Dyke is very capable in this type of role, it's all high energy and feel good stuff. This type of picture has almost died a death (in modern times) but not sure if that is a good or bad thing. Strange to think that this was filmed on the USS Kitty Hawk, an Aircraft Carrier destined for the Vietnam War.
