Many Often Wonder, Where did the name Blackfish Marine come from? Blackfish, aka Orca, or more commonly, killer whale – a creature that inspires awe in Pacific Northwest Boaters. “Blackfish” is what the coastal Kwakwaka'wakw band (First Nations peoples) in British Columbia call these sleek hunters, which are actually mammals. Technically, Orcas are very large dolphins – with much larger teeth. Whales have always been important to BC’s native people. Killer whales especially were believed to possess great powers and were never to be harmed. When Blackfish Marine was founded in 1988 by the Dick Irwin Group, it was Dick Irwin’s Granddaughter who suggested, at the age of ten, that the Company should be named “Blackfish Marine”, after the awe inspiring creature that she so enjoyed while out boating with her parents (Rick and Lara Irwin). As great lovers of the Sea and all Creatures in it, we thank Shannon Irwin for naming the Company after such a powerful and awe inspiring animal. |
