With Russell Crowe as Jack Aubrey and Paul Bettany as Stephen Maturin, the production only needed a ship that could stand in for Lucky Jack's HMS Surprise, with historical accuracy paramount. The filmmakers found the Rose, a replica of an 18th-century ship that would work perfectly. Only there was one problem: the Rose was in Newport, Rhode Island, not in Southern California, where they would be filming. Enter a ragtag crew of thirty oddballs who stepped up for the task, including Will Sofrin, at the time a 21-year-old wooden boat builder and yacht racer, who joined as the ship's carpenter.","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47978120052890,"sku":"9781419767067","price":17.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/1625\/7690\/files\/9781419767067-us-300.jpg?v=1778038708","url":"https:\/\/castlebooks.com.au\/products\/9781419767067-all-hands-on-deck-a-modern-day-high-seas-adventure-to-the-far-side-of","provider":"Castlebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
