"Hitting the High Seas"

According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "Hitting the High Seas" - the forty-forth episode of The Monkees series (and the twelfth of the second season) - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (27 November 1967).  It was written by Jack Winter, directed by James Frawley, and featured the songs "Daydream Believer" and "Star Collector."  Sandoval describes the plot as: "When the group take jobs on a shady ship, thoughts of mutiny are bountiful."
