The rhyming tale of two goats who get into all sorts of trouble when they set to sea in a boat. The weather turns from a lovely blue sunny day to a stormy grey nightmare. Then their boat hits a rock and the life ring is lost overboard. The boat sinks and the goats fear for their lives amongst the wild waves. A tug boat comes by and rescues them in a giant fishing net and dumps them on the deck. The goats fear that they will never get home as the sun sets and the boat is still at sea. At last they reach land and are set onto the sand just as its getting dark. They run home... will they be there in time for tea ?
