Summary | "Catty Atkins, Sailorman" by Clarence Budington Kelland is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the adventures of two boys, Catty Atkins and his friend, who embark on a summer cruise aboard a yacht called the Albatross after being invited by Mr. Browning, a businessman. The narrative combines elements of youthful curiosity and mischief with a hint of mystery and potential danger as they become entangled in the world of suspected pirates and tales of buried treasure. At the start of the novel, Catty and his friend are excitedly preparing for their cruise after meeting Mr. Browning, who seems to have secrets of his own. As they set sail, they learn about the crew members, including the bickering Naboth and the quirky cook, Rameses III. The atmosphere becomes tense when they notice a sinister black yacht, the Porpoise, trailing them, leading to speculation about hidden treasure and possible danger. The boys' adventure takes a humorous twist as they overhear crew discussions about the treasure map they unwittingly provided to the crew of the Porpoise, placing them at the center of a thrilling chase intertwined with their youthful escapades.
