Storyline
In 1950s Grey Rocks, Nova Scotia, a mysterious old seadog named Captain Charles Johnson comes to port and takes up residence in the inn of Kerstin Hawkins and her son, Jim. Once there, young Jim realizes that there is far more to that old sailor than meets the eye as Johnson offers to help on a school project about pirates in the region in ways Jim never imagined. Along the way, Capt. Johnson learns of the threat that a modern day pirate, the rapacious Mr. Moehner, poses and offers to help with that as well. All the while, that old sailor has his own business in that small town with a more direct link to its past that only Jim knows is possible. Written by Kenneth Chisholm (kchishol@rogers.com)

James Hargreaves: Catch her? Why? That's his ship.
Captain Charles Johnson: Aye, it is, and he runs it rough shard over our Earth for his profit, showing no concerns for the plight of man. He needs a comeuppance, James, him up there, him and his ilk. There's no room for those pitiless "gentlemen" in this life, lad. They have their law. I have mine. He'll pay for what he takes. What is, is. Mark me. What is, is.
Captain Charles Johnson: [Charles brings James back from their excursion] Skedaddle, now.

Goofs
A ship's flag waves in the direction the ship is moving. The reason for this is because the wind that fills the sails pushing the ship forward also pushes the flag in the same direction. See more »Quotes

This movie started off with a lot of promise. The animation is lovely at times. But the movie is really really dreadfully slow. It's just this old guy who kinda has these whimsical comments to this kid - and I guess they sorta go back in time or something and see some pirate stuff? Mostly the film is a close up of the Donald Sutherland character. Then there is this business tycoon is like a real life pirate but he's not a pirate he's just some guy? I dunno. I fell asleep.
