Trivia

• This video is related to The Dorothy the Dinosaur and Friends Video, where both videos feature highlights from TV Series 2, along with new framing material. the only difference is, that this video features The Wiggles themselves, whereas in The Dorothy the Dinosaur and Friends Video, The Wiggle Puppets are featured instead.
• The footage of The Wiggly Mascots from the intro of Toot Toot! is re-used for the opening of this video.
• Murray is only seen in footage re-used from TV Series 2, while a stand-in fills in for him while on the dock fishing (he wears a hat and is only seen from behind at a distance) for unknown reasons. It's also the last time we see him with bangs until Cold Spaghetti Western.
• In Captain Feathersword's introduction scene, we are introduced to Pirate Charlie, Pirate Sam and Pirate Rudolf. However, Sam does not appear in the rest of the video and the third pirate is instead played by Ben Murray, who is uncredited in the end credits.
  • Furthermore, this marks Sam Moran's first speaking role in a Wiggles project.
• This is the first Wiggles video to have the P22 Daddy O Hip font.

• It's the only Wiggles video to be focused on Captain Feathersword until Sailing Around the World in 2005.
• It's also the last Wiggles video until Dorothy the Dinosaur's Party to not be released in North America.
• The opening dock sequence features the third version of Captain Feathersword's third design which also appeared in Toot Toot! and The Wiggles in Disneyland.
• The video uses pre-aired drafts of TV Series 2 episodes. Three scenes also have an echo effect added to the sound of them.
• The book Greg is reading is the book used in Dorothy the Dinosaur Goes to Hospital.
• This marks the first Wiggles video not to feature Dorothy the Dinosaur on the front cover.
• This marks the final Wiggles video produced not yet released on DVD until the Big Red Car video, which wasn't released on DVD in Australia, it was released on DVD in North America as "Dance Party".
