Favorite part in move?

I've seen this before the boss has gone crazy somebody grab his hook

Ben: What happened?
Ron: Ah, nothin'... just playin' hide-the-salami in the shower.
Ben: (spit-take all over the game board)
Ron: Aw, come on, man...

My all time favorite part is when Captain Ron is introducing Martin and Ben to the engine and says:
Captain Ron: " Yea... a diesel loves oil like a sailor loves his rum"
Martin: (laughing) " Why is that, Captain Ron?"
Captain Ron: " Nobody knows!"

I like the running gags also, like that dry rot stuff and "it could happen to anyone".

Also, I don't believe anyone mentioned the quote after Martin rushes down the stairs, slips on the empty beer bottles and whacks his head. Then Captain Ron, Angeline, and Ben are all standing over him:

Angeline: " SEE!! I told you not to leave those bottles just lying around!"
Martin: (to Capt Ron) "... You cretin..."
Capt Ron: " Oh, Angeline's no Cretin boss. She's a Puerto Rican!"

Some of the funniest parts of this movie are the facial expressions...without even saying anything. Watch Mary Kay Place stare at her daughter when the guys in the red Uadi honk and wave to her on St. Haag's!!!

While Martin is waving back and remarking how friendly everyone is...Catherine is starring down her daughter with a look that screams...YOU SLUT!!!

Very funny...and realistic...!

So many quotes. Some are repeats but here goes:

Captain Ron: [telling how he lost his eye] Yeah, it happened when I went down off the coast of Australia.
Katherine Harvey: Your boat sank?
Captain Ron: No, no, no, no. Not my boat. My boss's boat. Yeah, we hit this reef. Huge son-of-a-bitch. Ran the whole coast.
Katherine Harvey: Wait. The Great Barrier Reef?
Captain Ron: You've heard of it, huh? Smart lady.

Captain Ron: [to Ben] Hey swab. C'mere. Listen up. Now, the way it works shipboard is, you do your job. You do it good, you get a better job. Maybe you get promoted from swab to mate.
[Ben nods]
Captain Ron: Alright. Get on it.
Captain Ron: [to Martin] Sort've an incentive kind of a deal, huh?
Martin Harvey: Ah. Good.
Captain Ron: [while drinking his beer] Yeah, incentives are important. I learned that in rehab.

Caroline: ...and mom and dad...I got tatooed!!
Martin: Where did you get a tatoo?
Caroline: In Mambo's shop!!
Katherine: No, where ON YOUR BODY did you get a tatoo?
Caroline: Mo'om, it's kinda private!

And my all time favorite part of the movie toward the end when they're being chased by pirates & Captain Ron fakes a broken leg & Martin discovers him jumping around excitedly because the Coast Guard is on the scene.

Martin: Captain Ron, your leg?!
Captain Ron: Yeah, it wasn't as bad as I thought. Plus I'm a quick healer, always have been; 'course I believe in Jesus, so that helps.

That line makes me laugh out loud every time, its all in the delivery. Priceless.



I almost numchucked you, you don't even realize!

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 :P
"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!
and and...
