What is the situation in the story. To me it sounds like a slogan for a marine supply store.

  I just read the other day an old Mickey Mouse story where this phrase
  was.

  Everything from sloop to knots.

  I should be some kind of pun I understand from the context but I don't
  get it. Can someone explain this for me ?

  Quiz:

  From what story is this ?

  Hint below 






















  It's a Murry story and includes Goofy and Black Pete.

  Thanks !
