In "The Cay" by Theodore Taylor, the SS Hato stops in Panama to refuel and pick up supplies before continuing its journey to the United States. The stop is necessary because the ship is not equipped to travel directly from Curacao to the U.S. without refueling. This brief pause serves as a plot point that ultimately leads to the ship's sinking and the main characters' subsequent struggle for survival on the deserted island.
