Starring: Alan Hale Jr., Jim Backus, Bob Denver, Natalie Schafer
Continuity mistake: When they are listening to the radio report describing the lost boat, the professor goes from standing up to sitting down between shots.
Revealing mistake: After the Skipper tosses the sail into the water, look at the background. On the right side of the shot, the bottom of the backdrop is easily seen, showing this scene is filmed in a huge water tank set.
Skipper Jonas Grumby: Ginger, I've got a problem... I've got a real problem... Now you're a girl, right?
Ginger Grant: Well, if you're not sure about that, you have got a problem.
Trivia: In the opening credits of the black-and-white episodes, the US flag at the marina is at half-mast because the opening was filmed shortly after the Kennedy assassination.
Question: In this episode, as the Professor is put into a trance, in the background, there seems to be a radio or television transmission tower that can be seen over the roof of the hut. It's blurry, but doesn't seem to be a standard palm tree. Is this a mistake, or set error, or my imagination?

Chosen answer: It looks like a mistake to me I see it when the Professor is put into a trance, but it is not there later.
