The Giant Pacific Octopus can weigh as much as 60 kgs (132 lbs) with arms stretching to over seven INFO metres (23 feet). Tidal currents here can reach speeds of up to 7.5 knots; the average sea kayaker travels at only 3-4 knots. The turkey vulture got its name because the adult’s bald red head was thought to resemble that of a male Wild Turkey. You can tell them apart from eagles flying above because they tip from side to side as they glide. 31 • PROPOSED SOUTHERN STRAIT OF GEORGIA NATIONAL MARINE CONSERVATION AREA RESERVE ATLAS – CHAPTER 4 • Supplemental Information Article References • http://www.aqua.org/animals_giantpacificoctopus.html • http://www.waterlevels.gc.ca/ • http://vulturesociety.homestead.com/TVFacts.html Map Metadata VISITOR USE SUMMARY Based on data from the following maps: Marine Facilities, Boat Havens, Dive Sites and Wrecks, Recreational Boating Surveys, Sea Kayaking, Marine Wildlife Viewing.

The Lights in the Bay of Fundy and on the southern and eastern coasts of Nova Scotia, those required for the winter passage of either steamers or ice boats to Prince Edward Island, the Light on the south-west point of St. Paul Island, and all the Lights in British Columbia, are exhibited all the year round. Ail other lights under the control of the Department of Marine and Fisheries are maintained in opera- tion whenever the navigation in the vicinity is open. Lights used sole as harbour lights are not exhibited when the harbour is closed, although the general navigation may remain open. Fishing lights are main- tained only during the fishing season. In any case where there is reasonable doubt whether the light is required it is kept in operation. All the Lightships in the River St. Lawrence below Quebec leave Quebec each spring for their stations as early as ice will permit.

  • Prevost Island Impression
    Prevost Island Impression Normally when July 1st arrives we head north, past Johnstone Strait for good scuba diving, kayaking, prawning and crabbing, wilderness hikes and relative isolation. Last summer was an exception – we had to wait for our “new to us” 40 Eagle to be delivered from Portland, Oregon. Instead of waiting at our home dock in Mission, B.C., my husband, Rick and I decided to head for the Gulf Islands. We would be close to the delivery site at Steveston in Richmond when our new boat arrived. We headed off in our 34’ Californian trawler, “Fish-n-Chips” and I tried to convince myself that the waiting would be easier if I was back out on the water. I tried not to pout and instead consoled myself thinking the time spent waiting would be worth it when our new boat arrived – even if I had to endure the more crowded anchorages while longing for the abundant wildlife, sea life and picturesque settings the northern waters afford. We decided to head for Prevost Island, accessible only by boat with no marina – a very quiet and secluded sort of island. After four amazing days there I had a much needed appreciation for the waters so close to home. When we arrived and anchored in Glenthorne Passage, we were the only boat there. After settling in we prepared to scuba dive off Owl Island, a small island just north of Secret Island where all the summer cottages are located. We loaded up our twelve foot inflatable, “Catch- Up” and headed for the dive spot.

FISHERIES RESEARCH BOARD OF CANADA MANUSCRIPT REPORT SERIES No.1l74 Area and Locality Codings for British Columbia Herring Biological Data by R. S. K. Isaacson and A. S. Hourston Pacific Biological Station, Nanaimo, B.C. January 1972 INTRODUCTION British Columbia herring catch, spawning and sampling data are identified geographically by area and locality. Areas recorded (Fig. 1) are modifications and subdivisions of the statistical areas used by the Markets and Economics Branch to record catches (Isaacson and Hourston M$ 1972). In herring population analyses it has been observed that herring from some localities resemble those from nearby areas more closely than those from the statistical area in which the locality is located and should therefore be grouped with the former for population analysis. Any data for these localities which are coded by statistical area (MEB code) must be revised to the appropriate "biological" area and locality (FRB code) for use in population analyses.
