Photograph of the "Rendezvous" in Whaletown Bay. This boat was owned by the Columbia Coast Mission from 1924-1955. It was operated by the Rev. Rollo Boas out of Whaletown from 1944 to 1954 and then briefly by Joe Titus, before being sold to Ed Tooker in 1955. Tooker renamed it the "Tari Jacque" after his two daughters, and used the boat for his work as a fisheries patrolman for the DFO. In 2015 Tooker sold the boat to Robert Critchley, who is the present-day owner (2021).

"Note the 38.55 Winchester rifle leaning on porch rail beside Frank. This and the .56 were since referred to as the guns that "won the West". Frank holds a .22 Winchester that got many grouse and some deer. The 38.55 W. was Frank Tooker Sr's and now belongs to grandson Fred Reedel--a keepsake from early days on Cortes Island."
