On the U.S. TV sitcom "Gilligan's Island," what was the name of the boat the people were shipwrecked on?

We used to dock a boat in a marina on Lake Erie. One weekend Bob Denver, who played Gilligan, came to to a promotion of a new resort on one of the islands. Since no self respecting boater could possibly miss their chance to see Gilligan off we went to see him. We had to go by boat, as there were no ferries to that island. Then we had to either walk two miles or jump into the back of an open bed truck for the rest of the trip to the new resort. Despite the difficulties of the journey to see Gilligan the line of people waiting to see him wrapped all around the building and extended down the parking lot. Even all of those years after the show ended Bob Denver’s fans loved him. 💕

the theme song is my ring tone

The endless debate: Mary Ann or Ginger?

loved,loved loved that show raced home to watch it after school

OptimisticFrog17914, I'm feeling kind of old, so maybe i just need to watch Gilligan! ... and Three's Company, and Benny Hill, and some 80's MTV .....

it was a very funny show most of the time.!!

Doc1956, Mary Ann, No Question at all.

As a kid, I always wondered how they could build a golf cart, but they couldn't build a raft or fix the Minnow.

Player #4641194plumc, I liked some of the episodes but I found lots of them silly. I did get to see the lagoon on the universal lot

dmcloren, I agree with that ! todays TV shows are sick, twisted, and polluted with too many commercials. Time to go back in time and stay there for the most part.

Frank Cross (Bill Murray from Scrooged) : That is so EASY!! Come on, you gotta know this one.

Doc1956, Both!

Sis, I enjoyed Gilligan's Island and Fantasy Island! ("Hey boss, the plane, the plane").

dmcloren, I enjoyed every one of those shows when I was growing up and I was sad when they took them off the air, Especially Benny Hill!

Daybonn, Seeing Bob Denver have been the highlight of my trip. Gilligan's Island was one of my favorite shows.

watched Gilligan as a kid in the 60's. Never felt old until he died. It is sad to lose someone you grew up with.

I hate this one don't tell I don't care.

I always wandered why the How's brought all that stuff on a 3 hour cruise. In fact, why were they there in the first place and not on they're private yacht! lol

Player #1952, Yes, it was. Jonas Grumby was his skipper 's character name

I'm 49 and I just love this show to this day!

Timeless escape.

I only know this from the movie Scrooged

Doc1956, Mary Ann, Period.

champ of any questions about is sit coms

dmcloren, I wish you were here

regnimmis, yes...maynard in Dobie Gillis

Vixen, u can't survive on a raft to long in the rough sea &Maybe the tools were lost in the sea.Thank about it?

it was a great show

I was told of the story that my Grandfather played golf with Alan Hale.

Player #1952, Alan Hale, Jr. played the skipper Jonas Grumby, Nobody ever called him by his name.

Vixen, they did try to fix the Minnow, but unfortunately the glue didn't hold. Several rafts were attempted, but they didn't work out. In one episode it was because everyone was trying to take as much gold with rhem as possible .

A funny tv series that brought to life many things that we encounter in daily living.

Player #9959745, I thought the same thing!
