I think the chase reffer to a thief man or a criminal man or a thief.

That makes no sense at all.

***** NOT A TEACHER *****


Do you mean that a criminal is on a ship with many other passengers and that a detective on a smaller boat is

chasing after the bigger ship? Well, then, your sentence would mean something like:

Are the passengers excited as they watch the detective's boat get closer and closer to their ship (with the bad guy

aboard)?

Note that there is no such thing as a "detectiver".
