While on Catalina Island looking for work, Joe is mistaken by socialite Alice Brandon (Rogers) for a champion marathon swimmer, who is competing in a 21- mile race to the mainland, and Joe is shocked to discover heâs expected to participate. Begged by Alice to show up her pompous ex-suitor, Ed (Preston Foster), Joe agrees despite the fact that he canât swim. Donning his unsinkable bathing suit, Joe hurries across the channel, braving octopi, seaweed, sharks and more as he races Ed for Aliceâs hand and a $25,000 purse.
