Gustav von Gustavason

A perfectly happy, often outrageous and evenly tipsy-acting 70-year-old Swedish sailor with an awful lisp. A member of Admirable Big’s famous crew and the mentor and humble servant of Holiday, he plays a mean banjo and electric guitar.

One arm is significantly deformed from an old accident, but Gustav’s skills are top-notch. His tasks diminished with the loss of Admirable Big, Gustav has taken to teaching the four Rs (Reading, Writing, Arithmetic, and Relationships) to the island’s children, until Holiday calls him to duty.

He serves as the top-of-the-line master mechanic and engineer, and always has the ship’s engines running at optimum performance with the latest of technologies to boot. Extremely creative and always thinking of future needs, he can fix virtually anything except a broken heart.
