Narrative

Su nombre data de 1963, fecha en que le fue asignado por el Instituto Hidrográfico de la Armada de Chile. Corresponde al nombre del buque fábrica ballenero chileno, de 3.000 toneladas, perteneciente a la Sociedad Ballenera de Magallanes, compañía chilena que operó en la Antártica desde 1906, con fines comerciales. Islote de aproximadamente 8 cables de largo por 3 de ancho, ubicado frente al extremo SW de la isla Adelaida y separado de ella por un canalizo navegable. La conformación orográfica del islote es similar a la de la isla Adelaida, siendo, al parecer, la terminación desmembrada de su relieve.
