- TriviaSidney Toler was struggling with cancer during the filming and was clearly becoming increasingly tired and frail. According to Mantan Moreland, Toler gallantly refused to leave the series. Moreland claimed that: "Mr. Toler couldn't stand for very long and had to rest a lot. I told him he should be in a hospital. And he said to me, 'Manny, if I quit the picture I'll put all these people, including you, out of work.'"

Featured review
When a murder takes place on board ship, it's a good thing that Charlie Chan is there to solve it!
It's Sidney Toler's next to last appearance as the detective, and it's a pretty good entry in the Monogram series. Victor Sen Yung is present again as #2 son, Jimmy, and his comic timing with assistant Willie Best. The cast is well filled out, with Dick Elliott, Joseph Crehan, and Gloria Warren. Toler is looking tired, and the movie is directed to have him move as little as possible. He was suffering from the cancer that would eventually kill him. Longtime cast member Mantan Moreland told him he should be in the hospital, but Toler worked on; "Manny, if I go, all these people are out of a job."
And so he soldiered on. It's good that this one is a better mystery, and the cast was up to higher standards.
