Cooper Island Dusky Sound.
Before the hunters came here in helicopters they had to rely
on fishermen and a deer recovery ship. This ship was moored at the south western
end of Cooper Island. All that remains is a mouldering dinghy parked high in the
bushes and the mooring. The line looked sturdy enough to hold something twice
the size of us. Looks can be deceptive. When the South Easter began to hoot down
the cove we were getting too close to the shore. Fortunately it was still
daylight and we made our escape.
