Another good reason to approve the new marina as quickly as possible is that it will be built over Moneymaker Rocks, eliminating a boating hazard that has caused many boats per year to go aground just outside the old footprint of Salt Spring Marina.

the islet/reef a mile away is another money maker
Sorry if there is confusion. Apparently no imagination shown by the namers, as the rock close in to Saltspring Marina is "Moneymaker" and the reef, about a mile away is also "moneymaker". Up at Silva Bay is "Shipyard rock" and elsewhere are similarly named disaster awaiting the unwary.
