About This Book

A group of Camp Fire Girls and their friends take a summer cruise aboard a small yacht, applying outdoor skills and teamwork to sailing, exploration, and neighborly rescue. Their voyage alternates lighthearted scenes—bathing, harbor visits, and shipboard camaraderie—with practical challenges: aiding an injured stranger, navigating coastal waters, and coping with weather and mechanical hazards that escalate toward a serious crisis. Episodes emphasize cooperation, resourcefulness, and the moral code of youth organizations, while interwoven subplots examine family ties and young romances. The narrative balances seaside adventure and practical instruction with character moments that test loyalties and leadership.
