Un joven cree ser el mejor conductor de barcos, pero un día tormentoso sale a navegar y se estrella. Al despertar, se encuentra en una isla donde aprende a volar un barco. A la mañana siguiente, vuela su barco de regreso a su lugar de origen, pero vuelve a estrellarse. Nadie le cree que voló el barco, excepto un niño. La historia narra las aventuras de un joven marinero y su barco, el Zéphyr, que termina naufragando en un lugar inusual: el borde de un alto acantilado. Un anciano parece conocer la respuesta a este misterio, revelando la historia de un niño intrépido y pretencioso que soñaba con ser el mejor marinero del mundo.
