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

Subject: A phrase queary and a quiz
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 !
