Sailor of the King background

Sailor of the King

A Canadian sailor must use his cunning to stall the repairs of a German raider until a British naval force can arrive to sink the enemy vessel.

Two survivors of the HMS Aylesbury, sunk by the German raider Essen, are rescued by the damaged German ship. As the Germans seek refuge in a secluded harbour to repair their vessel, one of the prisoners makes a desperate attempt to hinder the repairs, hoping to give the Royal Navy time to track down and destroy the ship.
