Storyline

- TriviaWhen filming began on this movie in late summer of 1965, Tommy Kirk was on probation with Walt Disney Studios due to an arrest on a marijuana possession charge from Christmas Eve of 1964. Although later cleared by the District Attorney's office, he was immediately replaced after the arrest by Michael Anderson Jr. for the role of the youngest son in the John Wayne movie, The Sons of Katie Elder (1965), for which principal shooting was to begin January 4, 1965. Newspapers of March 20, 1965, reported that Kirk had signed a five-year contract with American-International Pictures and on June 3, although details were not given, newspapers reports about Kirk stated that "His recent bout with the police in a mid-west city didn't do his clean cut kid image any good and his career with the Disney films seems over."
- GoofsThe band playing on the yacht later in the film is obviously miming as the drummer is playing nothing even remotely similar to what is being heard.
- Quotes
Charlie Moss: You shoulda seen him comin' up the coast. I don't think they sell bikinis in Arizona.
Don: Oh, they sell 'em. But, I've never seen so many trying to cover so much with so little success.

In praise of Robert Donner
This movie has very little going for it besides the performance of Tommy Kirk, the funny hat that chubby comedy-relief guy wears, and the cinematography of Ted V. Mikels. But it does has an ace up its sleeve - Robert Donner!
Yes, Robert Donner, that renowned character actor justly beloved for his roles as Yancey Tucker on "The Waltons" and Exidor on "Mork and Mindy". However, the movie's makers, apparently afraid that Mr. Donner, with his overwhelmingly dignified presence, would steal the show from the "stars", forced him to make a series of embarrassing and incredibly forced pratfalls. Oh, the ignominy of it all!
