Williams, the hydrographer in charge on the CCGS "John A. Macdonald", saw a shoal patch showing up suddenly on the echo sounder. He called Admiral Antony Storrs, of the Ministry of Transport, to take a look. The Admiral rushed over, saying "Where?" and then, "You mean that!" as he poked his finger at the sounder bending the stylus on the machine. |
