The crew of a small Caribbean vessel rescues Dick Jordan adrift on a raft. They encounter a drifting schooner with a deranged captain and his daughter Rose. Pirates capture the ship and tie Rose and Dick. Dick escapes, returns, and frees Rose from two pirates. Rose reveals the treasure exists. They plan to sail for land.
Rose rushes to tell Dick that her father has regained his sanity. Captain Bedford, cured by the Carib’s blow, vows to return to sea and praises Rose as her late mother’s equal. The trio notices an island ahead rising dramatically from the sea.
Dick spots seven men ashore with Tucu and Hen Pettigrew on a Caribbean isle. Caribs attack as Pettigrew is felled, revealing wrecked sailors lacking firearms while the Betty remains imprisoned in a nearby cove awaiting rescue. The scene blends peril, pursuit, and moral dilemma aboard a stranded ship.
