The three inseparable friends—Jerry, Ned, and Bob—are suddenly faced with a setback when their beloved motorboat, the Dartaway, is crushed in a freight‑train accident. Determined not to let the loss stop them, the boys set off for the Pacific Coast, intent on finding a mysterious derelict ship that has captured their imaginations. Along the way they enlist the help of their eccentric mentor, Professor Snodgrass, whose scientific curiosity adds a quirky twist to the journey.

Once on the West Coast, the gang secures a powerful new craft and begins a daring cruise across the open ocean. Their expedition blends rugged exploration with the excitement of a treasure hunt, as they chase clues, tackle unexpected challenges, and learn the value of teamwork. Listeners will be swept up in the boys’ spirited problem‑solving and the promise of hidden secrets waiting just beyond the horizon.

About the author

CY

Clarence Young

Best known as the name behind the fast-paced Motor Boys adventures, this was actually a Stratemeyer Syndicate house pseudonym rather than one single writer. The books helped define early 20th-century boys' series fiction, mixing cars, travel, and cliffhanger action.
