This was made by some of my favourite people - Arkoff and Nicholson, Corman, Griffith - and has some pleasing views of Hawaii but isn't a very good movie.
The plot is a version of Key Largo with gangsters involved in a robbery and Richard Denning being hired to boat them away but falling in love with a drunken moll (Beverly Garland).
The shots on top of the boats look fine, it was filmed on location. I loved seeing Sam Arkoff awkwardly spit out his one line of dialogue.
But there's too much talk - endless scenes between Denning and Garland (at least it seems endless.) There's lot of floral shirts - as in, a lot. It doesn't help I'm not that big a fan of Denning. Garland looks really attractive in the last scene with her hair slicked back with water.
Dick Miller has a small role.
