Sea— Sec. 



Sea ()ttn; bay; see Meares passage. 



Sea Otter; cove, in Wrangell harbor, Alaska peninsula. Called Port Bobrovoi (ties 



loiitres) by Lutke. 

 Sea Otter; harbor, between Baker and Noyes islands, Bucareli bay, Prin(;e of Wales 



archipelago. This place may be the one so named by Mearen in 1788. 



The identity is doubtful. 

 Sea Otter; island, east of Shuyak island, Kodiak grou]). Named Bobrovio (sea 



otter) by the Russians. Variously written Bobrow, Bohrow, etc. 

 Sea Otter; islet, between Kanaga and Tanaga islands, Andreanof group, middle 



Aleutians. Billings, 1790, says it was called Bobrovie (sea otter) from 



the number of these animals that formerly held their resting place upon it. 



This name Bobrovie, variously written Bobroff, Bobrow, Bobrovy, etc., 



and translated Beaver, has been applied to this islet. Tebenkof adds the 



word valga, which I take to be the Aleut name; another islet southwest 



from this bearing the name Kavalga. 

 Sea Otter; islets, north of Shuyak island, Kodiak group. Named Bobrovie (sea

 Sea Otter; sound, on the western border of Prince of Wales archipelago, a})Out 30

Eddystone rock, on the east side of the channel (Behm canal) is Seaton 



bay. It is about 2 miles wide, and extends into the mainland a distance 



of 15 miles." This appears to refer to Rudyerd bay, or perhaps it is an 



error for Smeaton bay. I have not found Seaton bay on any chart.
