One of the numerous funny parts -
Just after Martin has thrown the automatic weapons overboard
Martin: Captain Ron!
Captain Ron: Yeah, Boss?
Martin: What did you trade?
Captain Ron: There's the beauty. Nothing. Nada. They needed a lift to San Juan
and since we're
Martin: This is my boat. You understand? We don't give lifts to armed revolutionaries.
Captain Ron: Whatever you say. I'll return the guns and the whole thing's off.
Pause
Captain Ron:Is there a problem? -

The transition from "Yo, Mom, Dad!" to San Pom de Terre at 10:48>10:18, very clever and effective.
Note, "Stir it up; little darling", by Bob Marley is played over the two kids; it's appropriate to either. This seems to emphasize that the Harvey's are doing all this for their kids, and not just going on a Club Med thing for themselves and dragging the kids along.
Note also, at 11:12, the constable or whatever, stamping some papers, appears to have a potato on his desk,
Also,
Captain Ron's mambo.
The tattoo boy. (I'm glad it was a temp.)
The first festival scene.

I gotta go w/ the "eye patch gag", where they think Capt. Ron is dead and he's lying there w/ his glass eye staring up at the ceiling, and then he jumps up and moves the eye patch over from his "good eye" "I do that to keep the light out."
I about died laughing the first time I saw that. I rented it again last night, based almost purely on my memory of that scene, and the whole movie is even funnier than I remembered/realized! It has now moved to the top of my So Silly It's Funny movie list
"Grand theft auto is a major biggie down here in Cuba."
Oh, and when he starts dancing, and everyone else joins him, after "parking" the boat and ordering a margarita!

The beer spit-take scene of course. Not just for the kid spitting out his beer at the "hide the salami" line, but then Captain Ron's response "Aww, c'mon man"
And when Captain Ron is looking through the camera viewfinder, panning it around the deck, up in the sails at the sky, back down across the deck again, and then the sudden swoop back and close up on the mom and daughter's asses as they're sanding down the deck. -

I don't know the exact words but mine was when Martin asked Captain Ron if he could get them to ? And Captain Ron said "Sure. Any fool could find it" and Martin says "Lets hope so."
And the part where they think Captain Ron is dead. -

Going on 12 years.best pirate comedy ever! It's filled with slapstick, bad puns and fake injuries, fake eyeballs and fake tattoos.. It's good medicine when life is getting stale - well worth watching at least every few months. Best scene is a tossup - the runaway sander or - Martin Short tossing the guns overboard - and the "just give 'em back" follow-up line.
