They were working on the silt boom this morning - see the motorboat on the right of the breakwater, below. A couple more loads of rock arrived while I was there.

Wait a minute - what's that in the water - a sea dog?
No, it is a body!
Actually it is Lorne Williams from Cores Dive. Cores Dive has the sub-contract to manage the silt boom. Today they were removing it as the is no longer an concern that the material being placed is will not have small particulate. Lorne was pulling the sheet of felt around the breakwater up and securing it to the floats with the yellow poly line so they can move it to shore.
Diver Lorne Williams - a pretty happy guy, considering
he is up to his neck in close-to freezing water!
But don't feel too bad for Lorne - he said he will be going south, with much warmer water, in the near future!
