Great Fun Move!
The Boat that Rocked is actually based on a true story. In the UK in the mid 60's the only radio programming they had was the BBC that only dedicated a couple of hours a week to Pop and Rock music. Then came Radio Caroline which the movie is very loosely based on. An offshore pirate radio ship broadcasting pop music to a pop music starved nation! You could imagine what would happen when you have DJ's and guests and a big party atmosphere with a ship playing music!
We have a tribute webpage to Radio Caroline and Offshore broadcasting at:

All the best,
