Affairs of Cappy Ricks (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Wealthy seafarer Cappy Ricks returns home to find his family, home and business headed for the rocks. Daughters, Frankie and Ellen are on the brink of disastrous marriage decisions. His house has been taken over by Ellen's mother-in-law who has also conspired to strip Cappy of control of his corporation! Convinced that the idle life has dulled their minds, Ricks hatches an elaborate plot to take the entire family on a cruise, then strand them, temporarily, on a desert island where they will HAVE to work and rely on their wits. Unfortunately, the plan goes amiss and Cappy and the family are REALLY marooned with little prospect of rescue!
