Anderson, Edward Peil Sr.Nachdem er von der Schule geflogen ist, will der schwerreiche Vater des verzogenen, zehnjährigen Harvey Versäumtes nachholen und ihn in erzieherischer Absicht auf eine Schiffsreise nach Europa mitnehmen. Dummerweise fällt Harvey auf See über Bord, hat aber Glück im Unglück und wird von dem portugiesischen Fischer Manuel gerettet. Da dessen Schiff für die nächsten Monate keinen Hafen ansteuern wird, sieht sich Harvey gezwungen, sich unter Anleitung Manuels nützlich zu machen, was seiner charakterlichen Entwicklung nur zuträglich ist.
Harvey, the arrogant and spoiled son of an indulgent absentee-father, falls overboard from a transatlantic steamship and is rescued by a fishing vessel on the Grand Banks. Harvey fails to persuade them to take him ashore, nor convince the crew of his wealth. The captain offers him a low-paid job, until they return to port, as part of the crew that turns him into a mature, considerate young man.
