Things immediately start to go wrong for the Chester’s when they first arrive at the ocean. They are all quite excited at first when they see their beautiful beach house they rented. Of course, later that night, they get a shock when the real owners come home and kick them out. Apparently, they had the wrong address and discover that the actual house they rented isn’t as nice and comes with a snobby land lord. Jack ends up in a feud with him and has to race him to regain his pride and family’s respect. With the help of a local old sailor, the family does get the vacation they so deserve.
