History of Captain Harbor

Named by U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey (USC&GS) in 1916. This feature was originally named "Bailey Harbor" by the Revenue-Marine Service in 1879 for Captain George W. Bailey, USRM, who surveyed this cove. He was lost overboard on the return voyage to San Francisco in 1879.
