This is a dramatised story showing the events which lead to the grounding of a tanker. Uncertainty of the vessel's position due to poor visibility sets the scene and a navigation warning which is mislaid spells disaster for the vessel.

The film demonstrates how inaccurate positioning and observation coupled with lack of bridge discipline leads to disaster. A lesson for all deck officers.
