About Captains Courageous
Harvey Cheyne, a pampered and privileged young boy, is accustomed to getting everything his way. However, his life takes an unexpected turn when he falls overboard from a transatlantic steamship. Rescued by the crew of a Gloucester fishing schooner working the Grand Banks, Harvey finds himself far from his opulent world. Unable to convince the fishermen of his wealth or persuade them to return him to shore immediately, he is offered a position as a cabin boy. As Harvey reluctantly joins the crew, he learns the value of hard work, discipline, and teamwork. The challenging environment and the guidance of the seasoned fishermen gradually transform him from an arrogant and entitled child into a responsible, considerate, and capable young man, forever changing his perspective on life and the world around him.

How to stream with ExpressVPN
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is an app that encrypts your internet connection and masks your IP address, allowing you to stream securely and bypass restrictions.
Why Use a VPN for Streaming?

- Increase Privacy: A VPN protects your data on non-secure public Wi-Fi networks by creating an encrypted tunnel, safeguarding your personal information while you stream.
