Later that night, Trixie finds an old letter in a book and as they search for the author and recipient of the letter, they become good friends with their neighbour, Peter Kimball. Peter shares with them the joy of sailing and they become involved in an adventure involving sailboat racing, trying to stop vandalism and the search for money hidden that could benefit a family in need.
