Plot
editTwo salvage divers are romantic rivals for the love of Annie Fay. They both agree to back off and swear that they will pursue "no more women". However soon afterwards one of their boats is inherited by the attractive Helen Young who takes up quarters aboard. This triggers a new rivalry between them, and leads briefly to one of them wrongly being suspected of the other's murder. They join forces to thwart an attempt to kill them by a greedy rival crew when they are diving to recover a cargo of gold bullion. Ultimately Helen picks neither of them, telling them they are like brothers to her and they again pledge to give up women.
