18. Jericho Sailing Centre Association – The floating dock is primarily used by Jericho Rescue boats and safety boats involved in the operation of the Jericho Sailing Centre. It is also used by the Canadian Coast Guard for medical evacuations off the water. As dock space is limited, it is available for public use as an emergency dock or passenger pick-up/drop off, but not for tying up. The public beach and water way in front of the Jericho Sailing Centre is designated for use by small, naturally powered craft: kayaks, windsurfers, row boats, sailing dinghies, stand-up paddling etc. Swimming is prohibited. Boats, other than rescue or safety craft involved with Jericho Sailing Centre programs are not permitted in this area other than to approach the Emergency Dock.


19. Spanish Banks – Named by Captain Vancouver when he discovered the Spanish vessels Sutil and Mexicana at anchor after rowing from Jervis Inlet.


20. Point Grey – Named after Captain George Grey. At this location the S.S. Squid, with 25 tons of dynamite, was rammed by the Canadian Pacific Princess Joan. Wreck Beach, a popular place just to the south of Point Grey, received its name from the coastal freighter “Trader” (101 feet long, 22.6 feet wide, 172 tons). She sank on March 16, 1923, while captained by Fred Anderson with no loss of life but lots of wreckage on the beach (UASBC.)
