Harvey Cheyne (film character)

Harvey Cheyne was the son and heir of American businessman Frank Burton Cheyne.
Cheyne was a spoiled child, shunned by his classmates, and was suspended for bad behaviour. His father was forced to take him on a business trip to Europe, only for Harvey to fall overboard into the Atlantic en route.
Rescued by Manuel Fidello, a fisherman, Harvey is taken aboard the fishing schooner We're Here, captained by Disko Troop. Troop refused to return him to shore, forcing Harvey to become a member of the ship's crew.
Harvey eventually grew used to the lifestyle, befriending Troop's son, Dan. In a race back to shore against the rival ship, the Jennie Cushman, Manuel ascended the mast to furl the sail. Unfortunately, the mast cracked, plunging Manuel into the icy water. Knowing he was going to die of his injuries, he asked Troop to sever the remaining ties from the mast to the ship, while saying his goodbyes to Harvey.
When he returned to shore and reunited with his father, Harvey shocked him with how much he had matured as a result of these experiences.
