| Summary | "The Motor Boat Club off Long Island; or, A Daring Marine Game at Racing Speed" by H. Irving Hancock is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a group of young boys, particularly focusing on Captain Tom Halstead, as they navigate their motor cruiser, the “Rocket,” through a series of thrilling maritime adventures filled with danger and excitement. Set against the backdrop of Long Island waters, the book likely explores themes of bravery and teamwork as the characters confront challenges at sea. At the start of the narrative, the “Rocket” encounters a thick fog that creates an atmosphere of tension and uncertainty, leading to potential danger with other vessels nearby. Young Captain Halstead displays impressive leadership and quick thinking as he manages to avoid disaster, showcasing his skills as a seasoned sailor. Amidst navigating these immediate threats, a subplot involving the mysterious disappearance of Mr. Delavan, the owner of the boat, begins to develop, hinting at deeper intrigue and a potential conspiracy that the young crew must unravel while proving their astuteness and bravery.
