The captain took passengers - Mrs. Weldon and her son Jack, the wife and son of the ship's owner, heading to San Francisco, as well as cousin Benedict, a professor of entomology. At the last moment before departure, it turns out that the ship's cook has disappeared. The captain, in a hurry to set sail, is forced to take the first candidate he comes across - a middle-aged husband named Negoro. Young Dick Sand takes the place of the captain who disappeared at sea during a whale strike, and leads the ship “Pilgrim” to Africa, and not to America, because the vile villain and slave trader Negoro placed an ax under the compass. So the fifteen-year-old captain, the shipowner's wife with a small son, the professor and the crew were captured by scoundrels profiting from live goods.
