Captains Outrageous

This book follows Hap Collins and Leonard Pine as they embark on a Caribbean Cruise after Hap saves his employer's daughter. However, things take a turn for the worse when they find themselves stranded in Mexico with nothing but their misfortune and a ridiculous hat. They soon become entangled in a web of violence involving a nudist mobster, a strong-arm, an octogenarian knife-touting fisherman, and an armadillo. Upon returning to Texas, trouble follows them back, and they soon find themselves in more danger than ever before.
