The map idea is for a routing of his voyages in the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere; a drawing of the Aranzazu might be out there somewhere, too, in Spanish-language webspace; I didn't know which Latin American cats and templates here, or Spanish-from-Spain ones here; no WikiProject New Spain is there? Would WikiProject Mexico be suitable for all these guys, are are some more directly Colombian Chilean, Peruvian or hometown Spanish/Iberian? Each case on its own I guess. Anyway I know maps are a lot of work, and without reading his log in detail would be hard to do; the Aranzazu is an interesting ship/story though....real Enlightenment-era , a warship - a battleship i think - converted for scientific research, very Miguel III (or was it Manuel III, kind of dotty liberal spanish monarch of the day); but in re all tehs e guys, including Meares and Colnett adn Barkley et al, I'm reminded of those old explorer maps we had showing Magellan and Cook's voyages; all "in the long ruN" but food/maps for thought....

I poke around the "features within proximity" wanting to look at Estevan and Aristzabal Islands (BCGNIS has one big flaaw- no search-link off those item-pages) and poked around to find Doig Island; it may not need an article, but its namesake does; see this. the things you find out huh?
