	Strait
		A strait is a narrow channel of water that connects two larger bodies of water, and thus lies between two land masses.
		Straits usually lie on important shipping routes, and many wars have been fought for control of these straits.
		That is, while straits lie between two land masses and connects two larger bodies of water, isthmuses lie between two bodies of water and connects two larger land masses.

		The east half of the straits is a broad, smooth water-way for 18 miles, narrowing beyond the opening of Hoonah Sound on the north shore.
		The straits widen beyond the Rapids, and inlets open magnificent vistas from the main caion, whose steep shores are densely forested from tide-line to the snow-line of the mountains.

		Along Chatham Strait and Lynn Canal Chatham Strait and its northern continuation, Lynn Canal, afford the noblest water-way in the archipelago, a broad highway running almost due N. and S. for 200 miles, with an average width of 5 miles.
		Chatham Strait is a playground of inferior whales, great totemic creatures whom the Tlingits believed were once bears, but, going to sea, wore off their fur on the rocks and had their feet nibbled off by fishes.
		Halibut-fishing may be followed with success anywhere in the strait, and the crudest tackle with a bit of salmon or a herring for bait will decoy "chicken halibut" of 30 and 60 pounds while a steamer waits at Killisnoo wharf.

	Peril Strait - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Peril Strait is a strait in the Alexander Archipelago in southeastern Alaska at 57° N 135° W. It is between Chichagof Island to its north and Baranof Island to its south.
		The strait is 80 km (50 miles) long and reaches from Salisbury Sound on the west to the Chatham Strait on the east.
		As the strait does run between two large bodies of water (the aforementioned Chatham Strait and Salisbury Sound/Pacific Ocean), the tidal currents pose a danger to large vessels navigating the body of water.

		We figured that Chatham Strait would not be a fun place to be for days after this storm blows itself out so we did a 180 and we are now tied to a rickety old dock in Port Protection where Dammitt can protect us from TWO young fl Labs.
		We made it to Petersburg this afternoon, had a pretty good ride until Clarence met Sumner (Straits, that is) then, with the strong SW winds colliding with the currents and winds of Sumner Strait, things became sporting again.
		We were going to noodle around the rocks and sneak into White Sulfur Springs for a bath, but with the poor definition of the charts, the thousands of rocks and our forward looking depth sounder being inoperative, we wimped out in favor of the safety on the outside.

	Coast Guard officers draw weapons, board suspicious boat (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		JUNEAU, Alaska - A Coast Guard law enforcement team from the cutter Anacapa boarded a fishing vessel Saturday afternoon in Chatham Strait after the boat's operator initially wouldn't allow an armed team aboard.
		The Anacapa boarding crew became suspicious of six men aboard the 58-foot Sitka-based fishing vessel Kalliste after its master, 34-year-old Juan Carlos Schwantes of Sitka, told the two-man law enforcement team they couldn't board his vessel with their weapons.
		While conducting a routine patrol in Chatham Strait, the Anacapa crew spotted the Kalliste anchored and decided to conduct a boarding to check the vessel and its crew for compliance with applicable federal laws.
