Na primeira metade do séc. XIX, em Guernsey, uma das ilhas do Canal da Mancha, a pioneira embarcação a vapor conhecida como Durande proporciona regularidade e segurança no transporte de cargas e passageiros, o que enriquece seu proprietário, o Sr. Lethierry. Na mesma ilha vivia Gilliatt, um habilidoso marinheiro que era mal visto por todos, por ser considerado bruxo e viver em uma casa supostamente assombrada. Gilliatt era secretamente apaixonado pela sobrinha de Lethierry, a bela jovem Déruchette.Em um suspeito naufrágio, a Durande colide e fica presa entre duas rochas no desolado recife Douvres. O navio se perde, mas seu motor a vapor acaba não sendo afetado pelo acidente. A fortuna de Lethierry e de sua sobrinha passa a depender do resgate desse motor. Desesperado, Lethierry promete dar a mão de Déruchette a quem for corajoso o suficiente para enfrentar o perigoso recife e realizar esse salvamento, considerado impossível pelos marinheiros mais experientes da região.Por amor, Gilliatt parte sozinho e se voluntaria para lutar contra os elementos, as criaturas do mar, as privações e a solidão.
