A chronicle of Errol Flynn's pre-Hollywood sea adventures up the east coast of Australia. His crew includes his best friend Rex, a wild and visceral young man, the Dook, a proper young gent from Cambridge, and Charlie, the ageing and depressed previous owner of the boat. Flynn and company encounter beautiful virgins, underground boxing clubs, police raids, bar brawls, cannibals and man-eating sharks, while being forced to smuggle opium to survive.
