On a stormy night, the Travemünde volunteer station is alerted: A stricken vessel is adrift on the Baltic Sea – without lights. The sea rescuers waste no time and rush out into the darkness, but the search proves difficult. They manage to establish contact only by radio until they finally spot the ship in the churning sea. Despite the heavy waves, they manage to take the sailboat in tow. But the young man's condition is a great concern for the rescuers.
