The Rovers is something of a cross between Skippy and Riptide. Bob Wild (Noel Trevarthen) is a wildlife photographer aboard a two-masted schooner, the Pacific Lady. (Pacific Lady is played by a 75-foot 80-ton ex-crayfish boat the Derwent Hunter).
Ted Hopple is Captain McGill the ornery old skipper and Grant Seiden his cute, freckle-faced grandson who is also a cute freckle-faced veteran of some 50 or so TV commercials.
Rowena Wallace, (from You Can't See Round Corners fame), wears a black wig, is called Rusty and is a journalist. All good stock characters with no complications.
There's enough fauna aboard to sink a ship. Captain Hopple rightly complained about "snakes in the galley and wombats in the wheelhouse."
