Synopsis:
Aquaman and Aqualad come across a boat that is off-course. When they approach they are warned away by the captain of the vessel who claims that he is cursed. A sea plane also approaches and is damaged when it nears the boat.
Not fearing the curse, Aquaman approaches and is caught in a maelstrom. It subsides as Aquaman swims away. Later that night Aquaman returns with Aqualad and approach the boat from below. The water begins to boil around them causing them to flee.
Aqualad is convinced of the curse, but Aquaman is not. He orders swordfish to cut the hull of the boat. As Aquaman enters, he discovers some pirates. The captain explains that they are a pirate gang trying to evade capture by keeping people away using special machinery. Aquaman captures them, proving the curse phony.
