- Trampas wins a steamboat in a poker game on a steamboat but the money is confiscated for being stolen. When he tries to collect on the steamboat he won, he finds himself involved with a outlaw gang and a crooked boat owner.
- Trampas is playing poker on a steamboat with Billy 'Moose' Valentine and others. Billy has a surefire winning hand and he is after an old steamboat owned by Skeet who is also in the game. When Skeet bets the boat to cover $300, Billy retrieves the money from his brother but it is stolen and traceable. When he spots the Plimpton detectives coming on board, he throws his hand. Trampas wins big including the riverboat from Skeet. He also wins a substantial amount of money, which the two railroad detectives confiscate as it was previously stolen. Upon landing ashore Skeet quickly leaves with his granddaughter Corey Ann and her beau, Jason, the temporary sheriff before Trampas can catch him. Broke without even $4 to pay for his horse's boarding, he decides to collect the $300 Skeet covered with the steamboat. He finds his new boat very dilapidated with Skeet and Corey Ann living on it. Skeet doesn't have the $300 so Trampas works to fix it with the help of Skeet and his granddaughter. But two aging outlaw Valentine brothers and their gang also want to use the riverboat to stage one last big crime.—rbecker28
- Flushed with excitement a crooked gambler goes off to get some more money to continue gambling but has to cut and run when the riverboat is overtaken with armed men. A quick swim sees two partners in crime back on the run on dry land where more plotting and scheming takes place.
Trampas is left holding the baby in the form of worthless loot barring a good deed and has to explain his way out of trouble.
Trampas ends up being a saddle-less saddle-tramp and on the water, in a pretty pile of timber with a pretty gal, plus a Moose after much bargaining with a calamitous Captain.
A motley crew arrives to work on the river boat but they look like a bunch of vagabonds from a pirate ship somewhere! So who will end up the richer for the experience?
