What's in a Name?

Hinchinbrook takes its name from two islands. Worlds apart, but both with strong ties to Hinchinbrook's founding President. Hinchinbrook Island off the northern coast of Queensland, Australia is the largest island in the great barrier reef. It formed an incredible backdrop for Keith to research and recreate during his postgraduate studies. Its rich estuaries provide invaluable rearing and resident habitat for diverse and abundant fisheries, and it was the perfect location for Keith to learn about marine biology and fisheries ecology as he first began his career. 10,600 kilometers away on the opposite side of the globe, the other Hinchinbrook Island forms the southern entrance to Prince William Sound from the Gulf of Alaska. Millions of salmon migrate past here on their return to the Copper River, and it is in these waters that Keith spent nearly a decade researching and recreating and building the strong foundations of his career in environmental, ecological, biological and natural resource sciences and management. Both Hinchinbrook Islands were named by Captain James Cook on his global explorations, and James Cook is also the namesake of Keith's alma mater, James Cook University. We are proud to carry the Hinchinbrook name and the significance it holds.
