Seymour Narrows, charted in 1792 by Captain George Vancouver, has long been feared for treacherous currents, swirling eddies, and turbulent tide-rips. Even after the twin peaks of Ripple Rock were blasted away in 1958, these dangerous waters continued to harass vessels. The Narrows has claimed numerous ships and lives and is considered by many seamen the worst hazard to marine navigation on the British Columbia coast.
