Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Trapped on lakes: John Adams; captain of the Ciudad de Inca; at anchor behind him; manages a broad smile despite being unable to return home to Britain for more than a year. Then her sister ship Marques sank last June; U.S. officials were ordered to seize the Inca; pending the results of lawsuits. And she can't leave the Great Lakes without entering U.S. waters.
