I Sailed to Tahiti with an All Girl Crew
Tue, 31 Dec 1968
It's silliness on the high seas as two sneaky sailors race across the South Pacific in this fast-paced and campy comedy.

The other, not to be outdone, has a few monkeyshines up his sleeve and actually wins the race. The beaten bettor then makes the claim, that he can beat the victor to the mainland using a crew comprised of baboons. That is too much to resist for the other and the race is on.
