		Competing with English and Dutch attempts to find a northwest passage to Asia, the Spanish employed Juan de Fuca, a Greek navigator, to command an expedition that sailed north from Mexico seeking a northerly sea passage connecting the Pacific to the Atlantic.
		However, Vancouver discovered that the body of water which Juan de Fuca had sailed in did not lead to an eastward passage through North America; instead, it separated Quadra/Vancouver Island (what is known today as Vancouver Island) from the mainland.
		Vancouver was able to explore this area effectively by using his vessels the Discovery and the Chatham as a base while operating smaller vessels such as a 'yawl', a 'cutter', and a 'longboat' to navigate around the maze of inlets, islands and channels.
