The American War of Independence, 24th April 1778.
John Paul Jones is captain of the sloop-of-war, the USS Ranger. He and his crew have been tasked with raiding the coast of Great Britain and attacking merchant shipping. The crew, after months at sea and with few prize ships captured are becoming mutinous. To boost morale, John Paul Jones concocts a plan to capture HMS Drake, a British sloop-of-war, currently moored in Belfast Lough. Having tried to attract the attention of HMS Drake a few days earlier, he sails again into Belfast Lough to draw out HMS Drake.
