I swear I've seen a movie that has a plot very similar to this real event:

In the movie two island boys steal their (uncle's?) little aluminum boat and then get lost at sea.  I think it involves alcohol.  They end up being rescued so it's a happy ending.  One of them moves to Australia or New Zealand at the end I think.

While they're out at sea there's some controversy having to do with the motor.

I've been trying to think of the name of this movie for a day now and it's driving me bonkers.

"Dude, Where's My Atoll?"

I'm sorry, my googling skills have failed us. 
Vandalism! Sick vandalism! When I get my hands on the little punks I'm gonna hang them by their Buster Browns!

Sound like the director's cut of Cabin Boy.

I wonder if this was just a vivid dream.  My Googling, Binging and DuckDuckGoing have all failed.

Try DracSearch?
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

Dracsearch appears to be down, which is probably why I can't find anything these days.
