Have you ever wished you can go on your own 3 hour tour aboard the real S S Minnow as it makes its way across the Pacific Ocean? Well, now it's possible. I couldn't believe it when I first read the following article, but it's all true. Apparently, one of the original Minnow boats that was used on the show has been discovered near Canada and it has turned into quite a tourist attraction. If you live near the West Coast or are planning a vacation to Vancouver, you can now book a tour where you get to ride on the boat and enjoy a nice little cruise that you can tell your friends about later. Full details can be read here:

Now if only Gilligan himself was still around.....

I'm sure he's still out there somewhere on a South Pacific island with 6 other castaways. And loving it.
