Synopsis
Scott Heywood, millionaire's son, leaves home to see if he can accomplish
something worthwhile on his own. En route to Miami Beach, he exchanges
identities with Tom Wilson, a poor water-ski instructor.
Scott 's first student is Dianne Carter, who is in Miami to catch a rich husband
and sets her sights on James Jamison III, a playboy and boat racer. Scott
becomes jealous when Jamison becomes interested in Dianne and becomes determined
to impress the girl.
Unable to fall back on his wealth, Scott forms a partnership with Sam Burton,
who owns a new design craft that mysteriously ripped apart in the previous
year's boat race. Scott perfects a hardener for the protective coating on the
ship and the craft is ready to race. Unable to test it before the race, Scott
risks life and limb in the effort to win the race and the girl.
