Trivia
- Not all the Star and Zero tugs appear on the board game; the characters that didn't appear in the game are Big Mac, O.J., Hercules, and Zak.
- S.S. Vienna is the only ocean liner not to appear in the board game.
- In the promo photos there is a dice shaker made to look like a Star Tug smoke stack and a die with the Star Tug and Z Stack logo on it.
- The promo photos featured on the box use a slightly different version of the board game, it is not made up of puzzle pieces and has not text.
Goofs
- The board game says that Johnny Cuba is from Cuba when he speaks with an Australian accent in the TV series. This mistake must have led from his surname, Cuba.
- The Duchess' nationality is British, but in a rare picture from Sunshine, she has an American flag on her front mast.
- It says on the board game that Zebedee is owned by Captain Star, but as Zebedee is a Z-Stack, he should be owned by Captain Zero.
- This is probably due to the ending of High Winds, where Ten Cents offered him a place within the Star Fleet.
- Ten Cents is structured as 10 Cents.
- Captain Star's name is mispelled as Starr.
