Default Sitcom guess

Wackiest Ship in the Army. I saw the original movie - not sure I ever saw an episode of the TV show. Just an off-the-wall guess...

Default Captain's Exam

Ahoy to all, from the Aussie Bilge Rat? (Landsmen at least I wish.)

Love the Exam, you set up. But I am not on my PC as often as I should.

And, boy do some of you, know your Subs and ships, stuff.

Guess I am just not quick enough.

And I admit, I play Offline.

Was the comedy photo in the Exam, shown worldwide, in it's day?

If not then, buggar.

Operation Petticoat??

Know I am too, late, but no harm having a try?

See Ya.

The deck would be full of coins and the crew of the freighter would scramble to take as many coins as they can since war pay is not making any one rich, thus leaving their posts. This would give me the opportunity to get in position and fire an eel.

Now the fantasy part in my brain hurts...
Wow, that really makes cents! You win!

So, yeah, I could see that as a realism option in Silent Hunter: Remote jammer.... You win!

Sorry, but... oh yeah, ok, I got it. You win!

Being truly sneaky, we scramble up the side of the freighter and quietly kill the crew, one by one by stabbing them to death with the cork screw and smashing beer bottles over their heads. However, we cannot just open the sea-cocks and slip away. So I raid the captain's cabin of the freighter and take a few bottles of his best wine. Thus souvenirs in hand, we scuttle the freighter and escape!
That was very imaginative, I liked it. You win!

I salute that! You win!

I'm sure it could come back to you. If not, use the Red Triangle! You win!

Neal, you are one tricky Texan.

It took a little research, but "The Flying Nun".

I don't play SHO so save it for someone else.
