An unusual and imaginative romp designed to create laughter and delight youthful audiences.  Young Danny Smith and his sister Nancy are vacationing at Coney Island when Cap’n Spoon, the Pirate King, and his men are sighted.  What else can Barnacle Bess, the Fisherwoman, do but radio out to sea for Captain Nemo and his magical marvelous Submarine Machine, the Nautilus?  It’s an underwater vehicle that can also fly like a jet plane and travel on land like a mobile home!  It comes equipped with scanoscopes that monitor giant squid, sleep rays that neutralize enemies and an alarm system to alert the crew to impending danger.

The encounter with the zany Cap’n Spoon becomes a hilarious scene when it’s discovered he imprisons vacationing girls and boys so he can write ransom notes demanding sliver tablespoons (we won’t reveal why he wants the spoons...  that’s part of the fun)!  Then the Sea Witch appears, determined to steal the Nautilus and use it for her evil schemes.  She enlists the aid of Spoon and his band in a plan to take over the submarine and capture Nemo.  But Danny and Nancy join with Nemo in defeating the Sea Witch and her Pirate Crew.
