What happens- and what doesn't- when mild Peter Bellows, and his fiancee Elinor, more lovely than she is lovable, are slugged- while boarding an old merchant ship which is the hideout of a crew of criminals, planning to pull off a series of bank robberies. While they know little about navigation, Peter, an ex-Navy man, is useful.
Foolish robbers steal and board a ship they can't sail.
