Trivia

This track has slowed down in usage since season 5. Starting with "Grandpappy the Pirate," "Botany Bay (b)" has been replaced with "Sad Sack Shanty."
Between "The Krabby Kronicle" and "Hard Time Out," it took Botany Bay (b) thirteen years to return, but only in Kamp Koral.
Between "Funny Pants" and "Camp Crossbones," it took Botany Bay (c) exactly seventeen years to return, but only in Kamp Koral.
The last SpongeBob SquarePants episode in production order to use any of the variants of Botany Bay is "Krabby Kronicle," which also comes after "Penny Foolish" in US airdate order.
This track, along with the theme song and "Aloha Oé," is heard in the 2007 film Alvin and the Chipmunks with the episode "Have You Seen This Snail?"
