The Crew

This melodrama explores class differences, bigotry, and alternative lifestyles aboard a weekend pleasure cruise. The five main characters all eagerly anticipate their upcoming cruise through the Bahamas on a small yacht. The hero, Bill, still devastated by his alcoholic mother's suicide, is accompanying his wife Jennifer. Her brother Phillip, an anal- retentive and racist lawyer, owns the yacht. Included on the trip are Alex, a rock musician and his date, Catherine, who possesses a secret. Their smooth sailing is disrupted when they are boarded by two passengers whose boat met with disaster. Tim, who recently had a sex-change, is smuggling Camilla into the U.S. so he can pay for his operation.
