Behind the scenes
- The episode title is a play on Captain Spanky's Showboat, which was an Our Gang theatrical short in 1939.
- The boys using their feet as their "emergency brakes" is likely a callback to the final scene in the Our Gang short "Hi'-Neighbor!"
- After Alfalfa inspected the ship's whistle, a live spider jumped on his nose and he had a cross-eyed look - which may be a callback to a scene from the Our Gang short "Night N' Gales".
Errors
- After Darla attempted to pull the boat's whistle, the colors of her shoes and socks flickered, and then became pink and white respectively, the inverse of her usual white and pink color scheme respectively.
