Возвращавшийся с учения военный корабль получил задание задержать неизвестную шхуну, нарушившую территориальные воды ГДР. И хотя при обыске на судне ничего противозаконного не нашли, у командира корабля Фишера вызвал подозрение хозяин шхуны Арендт - бывший лейтенант береговой фашистской батареи. Сомнения Фишера подтвердились, когда на борт шхуны поднялся водолаз, фотографировавший под водой военный объект. Расследование показало, что задержанная шхуна шла с диверсионными целями, выяснилась также и «деятельность» Арендта, бывшего оберштурмфюрера гестапо.
