The Affairs of Cappy Ricks

193713+58 min

Captain Cappy Ricks returns home after an extended trip overseas to find his daughter engaged to a man he doesn't approve of, his shipping business taken over by his future mother-in-law, his beloved yacht completely automated, and it appears no one in the family will honor his authority anymore. So he makes a plan with his friend Bill (Talbot) to trap his entire family on board the yacht, to try to gain back his position as the head of the family by bossing everyone around, which backfires. Then Cappy and Bill fake a fire on board to shipwreck the family on an island as a last resort, but the plan goes wrong once again, and the whole group becomes shipwrecked for real! A zany comedy filled with great laughs and slapstick mis-adventures.
