The U.S.S. Sea Tiger is on its last legs until the dapper skipper and his ingenious (if slightly unethical) junior officer scavenge the parts and supplies needed to put the sub back into action. Forced out to sea prematurely by an enemy air attack the sub leaks and limps along its path until five stranded army nurses come aboard and take over its renovation... and the sub ends up a blushing pink! Cary Grant Tony Curtis and a star-filled supporting cast keep the laughs afloat in one of the funniest voyages ever to grace the high seas!

Matt Sherman (Cary Grant) is skipper of the U.S.S. Sea Tiger, a submarine forced out to sea by an enemy air attack. He is less than impressed by his newly-arrived junior officer, Lieutenant Nick Holden (Tony Curtis), who nevertheless manages to scavenge the spare parts and supplies needed to keep the sub in action. Matters are complicated when five stranded army nurses are taken on board, and assist with the renovation. Through a series of mishaps, Sherman's command ends up being painted a conspicuous shade of pink!
