The second chapter of Pirates of Sausalito is narrated by Dawn Felton, the daughter of Fenton Felton, the greedy developer who wants to evict the houseboaters so he can build a luxury marina. We’ve just met him in Chapter 1, where he pressures Police Chief Tin Holland to clear out the houseboaters immediately or risk losing her job. “Sink their damn boats,” he says. “Whatever it takes.” (You can listen to Chapter 1 here.)
In Chapter 2, we also meet Honest Abernathy, who, as Dawn says, “is handsome and charming, dresses like a pirate, and has more than enough low life in him to infuriate her father.” She’s no hippie, but she’s rebelled by taking up with the long-haired and flamboyant Honest, the self-proclaimed leader of the houseboat resistance. It’s her birthday and he has promised her a birthday present that will “blow her mind.”
