      Nicholas Guy Smith is an unobtrusive narrator. He lets the second adventure of the School Ship TOBERMORY unfold on its own. This time the boat is bound for the Caribbean, where 12-year-old twins Ben and Fee MacTavish, along with their school- and shipmates, befriend a local boy, experience modern-day pirates, and come to appreciate more fully the bonds of family and friendship. Smith provides voices with adequate distinction for the various students, including optimistic Fee, modest Ben, newcomer Mike, and the leering trio of bullies. His rich, full timbre and dash of a Scottish accent bring authenticity and compassion to the captain and the first mate. Smith's pacing is leisurely or fast, as the action dictates.
