Item Description
A fishing boat owned by a Japanese couple and lost in the 2011 tsunami has brought two women from opposite sides of the Pacific Ocean together after the small vessel was discovered washed up on the B.C. coast.
"We were just going out in the dinghy, touring around a bit, and I just glanced over at the beach, and I saw what I thought was an odd-shaped, an odd-coloured log," said Jeanne Beaver, who with Rick Beaver lives in a floating cabin tucked away in an island cove east of B.C.'s Haida Gwaii.
