Man, I was starting to think I was crazy when I'd tell my friends about this show and none of them would remember it. I was born in 75, so all I remember about the show was that it was in "the islands," as my grandpa calls the area. The guy flew the seaplane and had the one eyed dog, and had a leather jacket and crusher cap. We'd always get drunk in college and watch 7th Heaven, and I'd bring this show up. Not a single person I've met in over 10 years has remembered it. And I remember their hangout, just not a lot of details. I've also been reminded of the show when I've watched 1930s and 40s adventure movies. I can't review its quality. But I sure am glad to even know the correct title now. I'll have to see what I can find in regards to this show.

. . . was an absolutely fantastic show. I was only twelve when it aired, and given my age it holds the same place in my heart that movies like "Indiana Jones" hold (and yes, I know the former did not derive from the latter). It was fantastic in the true sense of the word. At the same time, it was light-hearted and fun and adventurous. I have ever since wanted to visit Boragora, and was disappointed to find that the place didn't exist.I searched for hours on-line looking for the name of this show. For whatever reason, the image of it popped into my head a few months back, and I could not for the life of me remember it. Hours on-line cured that.For all you Gold Monkey fans out there, you can now purchase the season on DVD.

This was a cool show! I'm surprised it didn't last longer, I mean this seems like perfect fare for the early '80s, with Indiana Jones and all. I guess it was a big hit with kids, but not so much with adults. It was awesome to me, but then I was only 9 at the time, so what did I know??

A great programme that I remember watching in the early 80's on British TV. It was shown in England in about 1982 (I was 12, my brother 16). We both loved it, but it was only on for one series and then vanished into thin air. I would love to see this again!Reminiscent of "Raiders of the Lost Ark", but with a classier, darker feel to the stories. The characters were less one dimensional, but still appealed to the kid in me. I always loved the flying "boat plane"!
