The hurricane that raged in the northeastern United States caused a violent storm that covered the entire coast. Near the Cape Cod Peninsula, the elements overtook two tankers — «Fort Mercer» and «Pendleton». Upon discovering the leak, the crew of the Fort Mercer sent a distress signal. The message said the tanker was splitting. In the midst of the storm, the Coast Guard used wooden motor boats to rescue the crew of two oil tankers. Translated into 5 languages 100,000 copies sold.
