It all started with a coot's nest. Dorothy and Dick meet Tom Dodgeon, Port and Starboard, and three pirate salvagers--all members of the 'Coot Club' Bird Protection Society. When one of the coot's nests is disturbed by a shipful of 'Hullabaloos'--rude holiday boaters--trouble begins. Frantic chases, calamitous boat collisions, and near drownings fill the pages of this exciting fifth addition to Ransome's classic children's series.
