The brig Boundary, 188 tons, struck Goose Island on the 10th of June, 1859. Her master Captain Hempseed, his wife and four crew lost their lives.

The lighthouse shown on Googe Earth satellite map measures 1.07km SW from this position. Might the kayak have been heading north a little closer to shore whilst a bit south of the lighthouse perhaps?
