Dans ce court métrage, Sindbad le marin se proclame « plus grand marin, aventurier et amant du monde ». Popeye le contredit par inadvertance, alors qu'il chante sa chanson habituelle en naviguant à portée de voix de l'île de Sindbad. Sindbad ordonne à son énorme rokh d'enlever la petite amie de Popeye, Olive Oyl, et détruit le vaisseau de Popeye, le forçant ainsi à nager jusqu'au rivage. Alors que Sinbad se délecte de faire d'Olive un trophée, il est interrompu par l'arrivée de Popeye, qu'il défie ensuite lors d'une série d'obstacles pour prouver sa grandeur. Popeye doit alors vaincre le rokh, un géant à deux têtes nommé Boola (une référence aux Trois Stooges) et, enfin, Sindbad lui-même. Grâce à sa fameuse boîte d'épinards, Popeye parviendra à vaincre Sindbad.
