Boston, 1774, the British Colonies suffer under the yoke of George III's rule. Patriots prepare to fight for their liberty. In an act of protest they have thrown a shipload of tea into the harbor. Benjamin Bradford Allen, son of a wealthy Boston shipper is a skilled sailor. He is also fully occupied with drinking and spending his father's money. Pressed into service aboard a British warship, he is unable to find anyone, including his father, who will pay the bribe needed to free him. Months later, as open warfare erupts at Lexington and Concord; Allen jumps ship and throws in his lot with a rag-tag collection of fellow sailors. This odd lot sets out on a sea venture - to serve as privateers in the patriot cause. They seek fame, money, adventure, and for Benjamin Bradford Allen, a chance to find honor and self-respect.
