Tommy Layton, a wealthy bachelor, rents a city bus to travel from Chicago to Los Angeles for a yacht race to Hawai’i. The bus drivers, Algernon ‘Algy’ Shaw and Wellington Pflug, are pursued by a detective hired by the bus company. They escape by driving the bus off a fishing pier. Layton, now aboard his yacht, rescues them and hires them to join his crew for the race. A rival in the race, Joan Marshall, has fired his original crew without his knowledge. He enacts revenge by kidnapping her and taking her along on the voyage.

On the course to Hawai’i, they encounter a typhoon and land on an uncharted island, the home of Varnoff, a mysterious archaeologist. The island natives mistake Wellington as a legendary hero and tell him that he must marry Princess Luana. Meanwhile, Varnoff intends to trigger a volcanic eruption to win the tribe’s sacred jewel. The natives send the hero—and the jewel—to the volcano to confront the supposed evil spirit. Varnoff chases them to the crater, where the pair are ultimately defeated.
