When Bryce Billings says he will clobber Fish Finelli in the Captain
Kidd Classic boat race, Fish has no choice but to accept the bet. But
Fish's 1970s Whaler with a broken motor is no match for Bryce's new,
top-of-the-line, 9.9-horsepower Viper--even if Fish, Roger, and T. J.
can fix their measly 5-horsepower motor, it can't compete with Bryce's
boat. With $9.63 between them, do the guys even have a chance at the
Classic? A hilarious romp, filled with fun facts seamlessly integrated
into the story, Fish Finelli informs as much as it entertains for
perfect middle-grade reading.
