Turning his back on his friends, Elias submerges himself into the job, along with befriending the people of Big Harbor, including a female boat and her friends.

What I love most about this is that the animation is incredible; the realistic water, the colorful environment, the textures all make for a visually stunning movie. Kids who love "Jay Jay The Jet Plane," and "Thomas The Train" will love this movie. It is filled with suspense, danger, humor and heart.
