I keep hoping this will be put out on DVD some day. I haven't yet seen a minute of it, though I have the LP based on it. By the way, this may be something for which tikiphiles and Jimmy Buffett have a fondness in common, for he has written about how AIP is what first gave him the sailing/islands bug, and wrote these lyrics in one of his songs:
Hey hey, Gardner McKay
Take us on the Leaky Tiki with you
Clear skies, bound for Shanghai
Sailing 'cross the ocean blue.

There is apparently a book just now coming out on the show:
