"I see what the matter is!" said Captain Ross. "The propeller is broken. It hit something." "Oh, can't we go to Christmas Tree Cove?" asked Sue. "We'll get there somehow," answered Captain Ross.

"We'd better take a look. We're near shore, anyhow, and it won't take long to row over if we have to," he added. "But we surely did hit something." "Maybe it was a whale," suggested Sue. "Whales don't come up in the bay. They're too big and fat," declared Bunny. "Well, maybe then it was a shark," the little girl went on. "They're not so fat." Captain Ross and Mr. Brown hurried below deck again, but presently came up, and the seaman said: "We can't find anything wrong below--no leak or anything. We may have hit a big, submerged log or piece of a wreck. Start the motor again, Bunker, and we'll see if that's all right." The gasolene engine was not damaged, but something else was wrong. As soon as the machinery started there was a trembling and throbbing throughout the whole boat, but she did not move ahead.
