The boat used as the S.S. Minnow for the “three-hour tour” in Gilligan’s Island was a 1964 Wheeler with a cruising speed of 12 knots. That means the castaways could have barely traveled 40 miles. I’m starting to doubt the show was realistic.

Another childhood belief crushed.... but i still think it was more realistic than Survivor.
