Martin Eden (Glenn Ford) is an aspiring writer who takes a job as a merchant seaman. After suffering extreme abuse at the hands of the captain, his boyhood rival Butch Raglan (Ian MacDonald), he writes a book chronicling the brutality at sea and detailing the plight of sailor Joe Dawson (Stuart Erwin), who was wrongfully accused of murder. Unfortunately, Butch puts all his energies into making sure Martin's memoirs never see the light of day, and the sailor must fight to get them published.
