Synopsis
Bugs tries to get Yosemite to let him come along on a voyage, but Sam forcibly declines. Once about his pirate ship, Sam encounters his Cousin Shiftless, who is even a bigger pet than Bugs. Sam finds Bugs and signs a contract to allow Bugs to be a pest while on board -- all a ruse to keep Shiftless occupied and out of Sam's hair. Needless to say, the plan backfires.

Synopsis
Yosemite Sam is bankrupt and can't pay his rent. He can't pirate and no one will hire him and he won't agree to wear any clothing not sea related. A couple of smugglers overhear his plight and tell him he can wear a sailor outfit and they will hire him and Bugs as part of their "maritime research" project, which is really a scheme to foil the Coast Guard. Sam agrees and he and Bugs go out to sea with the smugglers. Bugs gets suspicious and ultimately ends up foiling the smugglers and bringing Sam out of bankruptcy.
