Large disk shaped object travels slowly over Douglas Channel

First of all I would like to thank Mr. Peter Davenport, director of the National UFO Reporting Center for making me aware of a sighting which took place on February 22, 2003 at Mill Bay on Vancouver Island. This report looks as if it goes hand in hand with the two reported sightings at Kitimat and the sighting between Terrace and Prince Rupert, British Columbia on the same evening.

Two Alcan aluminium smelter employees while at work, noticed a "large" disk shaped object travelling very slowly over the Douglas Channel. The object was reported being very low off the Channel and rose up to clear the mountains to the north. One of the witnesses I have talked with said the both of them stood completely still with their mouths wide open watching this thing ! "They said if there had of been any change in direction, meaning towards them. They don't think either of them would have been able to move". Large, very bright white lights were noticed shinning on the water, and this is what caught their attention to the craft. Since the object was so low, and casting a bright light onto the water, it lit up a good sized area which made a portion of the object visible to them. No other lights were reported being seen, other than what they saw hitting the water's surface. It made no sudden moments until it gradually gained altitude to climb up over the mountain. The men witnessed this event for approx: 2 minutes. I witness said they both knew for certain that what they were looking at was no normal aircraft that they new of, mainly due to it's size and speed. Plus they never have seen anything shaped like that before. No noice was reported coming from the object.

HBCC UFO Note: (Still working on this case, and hope to find someone else who may have seen this as well).
