I gotta go. I'll see if I can make it.

Bye-bye.

What do you think about Captain Ron?

I can find someone else

if you're not comfortable with him.

No, he's fine. He seems to know

what he's doing. He was in the Navy.

What about the eye thing?

I wouldn't fire him because he is

physically challenged. I admire him.

Look at the way he parked the boat.

Unbelievable! Especially for somebody

with no depth perception.

Yeah, he's good.

.. Take your bundle and go, Caroline

Take your bundle and go, Caroline..

- She said she'd meet us here.

- Will you trust her?

- Hey, how was it?

- Cool. Rainforests and shells.

- I told you!

- It was fun.

Hi!

See. That's very friendly.

That's not what you get at home.

.. Tell me where you've been

last night, Caroline..

I've done some research

and plotted our course.

This is old stuff to you,

having been a helmsman.

I just steered the Sara.

I didn't navigate.

Get me another brewski.

- You know these waters well.

- Yeah, no problem there.

Besides, if we get lost,

we dock somewhere and ask directions.

Martin,

I've never heard of these places.

That's the point. Who wants to stay

in a place like this every night?

We can visit sponge fishermen

and an old monastery,

fabulous rock formations

and an old Spanish fort.

If we stay on schedule,

we'll be there for carnival!

- There. San Juan.

- That sounds like fun.

- Where is that again?

- San Juan.

- I'll just leave this with you.

- I'll give her a good study tonight.

- I thought we'd go below.

- All of us?

No, just you and me.

- Kids. Mom and I are gonna turn in.

- 8.30?

- Dawn comes early on a boat.

- You're right about that, Boss.

But you can stay on deck

and play a game or something.

- Hell of an idea. Poker?

- I think we'll stick to Monopoly.

- It's just...

- I got you. Come on, swab.

What do you think, baby?

The first night on the boat.

Waves lapping against the hull.

You, me, in our floating palace.

Skipper, the walls are kind of thin.

We're not alone.

I thought about that. The shower.

A little camouflage noise.

(MARTIN AND KATHERINE GIGGLING)

- What's with you?

- Party at the Dutch consulate.

- Nice map.

- Nice dress.

If anyone asks, I went for a walk.

Expensive night.

Now that you got a little coin,

let's make the game interesting.

OK.

Let's say 10 cents equals 100 dollars.

- Mr Big Stakes.

- What's that sound?

Water pump.

- Get your hands off!

- I wasn't gonna drink it.

You bet you wasn't.

You want a beer, get your own beer.

Honey, wait.

Let me adjust the shower.

What's that? A mop.

- Don't go nowhere.

- Where would I go?

- Lucy, I'm home!

- It suddenly got crowded in here.

- It's a bit cramped in here.
