Young recounts his 40-year career working on the Uchuck coastal passenger/cargo vessels off the coast of British Columbia, Canada. He draws on letters, newspaper articles, photos, company files, journals, and his memories to detail the history of marine companies in Barkley Sound; the Barkley Sound Transportation Company Ltd. and the cargo handling, lifesaving gear, and passengers of its ships; weather and navigation, work, rescue, communication, and traffic control aspects; and his experiences as a junior deckhand, senior master, president, and half-owner of the company through its various phases, up to 1994.
