What should I bring on a 3-hour tour?
Just an afternoon boat trip with some old rich couple, a coupla young chicks. I've got my floppy hat - what else do I need?

5. good idea!

He can explain the sea life to us!

edit: found one. He seems sorta geeky, but pleasant enough to spend a couple hours with. He might drive me nuts if it were any longer, though.

9. Bring a basketball
In case you get stuck on an island, I've heard that there could be a game of basketball with the Harlem Glboetrotters against some robots.

I would also pack my "how to build a radio out of coconuts but not know how to fix a hole in a fricken boat" handbook.

10. I volunteer...

I can qualify as "the professor", but you and the boat captain just
have to promise to be "bunk mates" (that's why he's the skipper!),
and leave the two young chicks to me...

Oh, and I can make a radio with some volcanic rock and coconuts...
and all kinds of other stuff should we become shipwrecked... of course,
no promises on getting us back to civilization anytime soon.

27. Yeah, but you never know

when the weather's going to get rough.

And it's a tiny ship, which could be tossed? Right?

Course, I'm sure you have a fearless crew.

What could go wrong?

28. Waterproof, solar powered, handcrank HAM radio.
Of course, it will be stolen and eventually destroyed by a gorilla, despite the castaways best efforts to retrieve it. And then it will be revealed that it has been Ashton Kuchtner in a gorilla outfit all along, and the castaways have all been punked!

31. A GPS and an INMARSAT phone would be good
Also weather radar.

But then again...think of all the hours you'd never spend in front of the television watching Gilligan's Island if Alan Hale could have navigated his way around the storm.
