vJne day Bugs Bunny was

strolling along the

docks

not far from his rabbit hole. There he had a beautiful


view of boats coming and going on the ocean.
Suddenly Bugs saw a sight even more beautiful
big crate of carrots! Bugs opened the crate and ate
and ate until his teeth were tired. Then he crawled

the ocean rocking


beneath him and smelled the salty sea air.
"Where am I?" Bugs wondered. He looked out one
porthole, then another, and realized that he was on a
ship in the middle of the ocean.
"I hope this ship's going to Pismo Beach," Bugs
thought. "I could use a vacation."

Bugs Bunny went up

to the

main deck and saw

Captain Yosemite Sam steering his pirate ship while


studying a hand-written map.
Bugs tapped Sam on the shoulder and asked,
"What's up doc?"
"What're ya doin' here, ya long-eared landlubber?!"
Sam shrieked. "Are ya tryin' ta steal muh treasure?"
"What treasure?" Bugs asked innocently.

Sam grabbed

the map.
"Look, doc, I'm not interested in treasure," Bugs
began. "Just drop me off at Pismo Beach. On the way,
I'll help with the ship. You look like you could use a
crew."
Sam decided he might as well put Bugs Bunny to
work.

While Bugs checked off the supplies in one boat,


Sam made small cuts in the ropes holding the boat
to his ship. "So long, ya stinkin' stowaway," Sam
thought, chuckling.

By the time Bugs reached the end of the list, the


lifeboat was hanging by threads.
"It's all here," Bugs reported.
"Then haul 'er up!" Sam commanded, stepping back
to avoid the expected splash.

But

to

Sam's surprise, the ropes didn't break.

"What the I mean, hmm, I better check the boat


myself," Sam said, wondering why the ropes had held.
As soon as Sam stepped into the lifeboat the ropes
broke. The boat fell into the ocean with a great splash.
Bugs leaned over the side of the ship.
"Hey, ya long-eared landlubber!"

Sam tiptoed to the cannon, struck a match, and
thought, "Good-bye, ya carrot-chompin' critter!"
He lit the fuse and plugged his ears.

Sam waited, but nothing happened. Then Bugs

"The dang-blasted thing's supposed to fire," Sam


muttered from inside the cannon.
"Maybe you need to release the safety catch," Bugs
said, flipping the catch.

"Wait!"

Sam yelled, but it was

too late.

BOOM! Sam flew way up

into the sky,

where an

angry sea gull squawked in his ear.


"Land ho!" Yosemite Sam yelled as he zoomed over
the waves and landed on the sandy shore of Pirate
Island.

By the time Bugs lowered a lifeboat and rowed to


the island, Sam was already searching for the
treasure.

"Two paces to the left," he muttered, studying his map.

shoulder.

Sam reached

the cave just as the volcano erupted.


"Not again!" yelled Sam as he felt himself being lifted
high above the shaking cave.
The explosion sent Sam and the treasure flying
through the air. He landed with a thud on the deck of
his ship atop a mountain of gold.
Sam grabbed two handfuls of gold coins and threw
them over his head in a glittering shower.

Sam wondered what was going on. Wherever he

ship was going down! The treasure chests had made
holes in his ship!

Sam cried.
