Points Blunt, Campbell, and Knox are named for other officers in that ship - the four corners in honor of four officers as it were.
Thanks Pat. I heard that Point Blunt was so called because off-duty soldiers stationed on Angel Island during the Civil War would stroll out there, far from their officers, and light up a doobie.
Max, Find an isolated "point" down south that doesn't appear to have a name. Explore and chart it. Wallah: Max Point. (or has that already been taken?)

"Wallah." Do you know how many times I sounded out that word till it finally made sense? Reminds me how it took nearly a year before I finally realized why the newspapers kept calling George W Bush "do-by-ya."
