Angus was born in Falmouth, a village on Cape Cod. His father is a commercial fisherman and his mother runs their small fish store. His grandfather was the famous Captain Appleby, who sailed a large three-masted cargo schooner which was lost in a storm off Cape Hatteras.
Angus is expected to follow his father's footsteps and become a fisherman--however, Angus has his grandfather's love for sailing and, against his father's wishes, he secretly takes sailing lessons. He has a dream to someday sail around the world. One day on the city dock, he meets an old sea captain who owns a small sailboat that is sinking at the dock.
Angus befriends the old man, Captain Duncan, and tells him of his dream to sail the seven seas. Captain Duncan tells him he once had the same dream - that he built the little sailboat fifty years ago, named it Echo and sailed the world. He gives Angus the little sailboat and encourages him to follow his dream. Go along with Angus on his journey, as he finds new friends, gains experience, encounters terrifying storms and eventually fulfills his dream.
