| Description: | Captain Chinnough (John Payne) gets drunk after his fiancee dies. While he's incapacitated, his first mate changes course and piles the Chinnough's ship onto a reef. Chinnough is thought dead, and the blame is laid on him. He's rescued, and determines to clear his name. He takes passages on a ship now captained by his old first mate. On board he meets Kim Mitchell (Gail Russell), out seeking adventure. They're attracted, but when Kim finds out that Chinnough got drunk and lost his ship, she pulls away. The ship gets caught in a typhoon. The captain can't handle it and calls for Chinnough to help. He sees the ship through the storm. The captain thanks him and promises to tell the truth so Chinnough can get his captain stripes back. Kim and Chinnough end up together. |
