Search and Rescue - 2

A CH-149 Cormorant stationed at Comox with what is now the 442 Transport and Rescue

Squadron. They fly over Westview regularly, and with their noise are hard to miss.

Coast Guard

Denis Taylor, Officer in Charge at the local Coast Guard station, guides the

CCGS Cape Caution to her berth in the South Harbour.

Having been pulled out of the water myself in the days before there were

SAR Lifeboats at Powell River, I have a deep appreciation of the need for a

Coast Guard presence here.
