Lagan (RCMP Cpl.) also expressed suspicions about Carver’s story that storms blew him north until his sailboat sank off the northwest coast of Vancouver Island.

“He knew he was in Canadian waters,” said Lagan. “This was not an accident that he blew up all the way from the U.S.-Canada border all the way to the northern tip of Vancouver Island.

Mark Proulx, maritime co-ordinator at the Victoria Rescue Centre, casts doubt on Carver’s story of stormy weather, however.

Proulx said between Feb. 18, when Carver dropped off his friend in Tahsis, and Feb. 26, when he said he was shipwrecked, the wind conditions were often almost too light for sailing, blowing as little as three knots on Feb. 19.
