It's common practice for providers of aerial/satellite imagery such as
Yahoo to mask out actual coverage of oceans and large lakes with a
generic "ocean" texture that is meant to look "better" than actual
photographic data.  So if it's small and not very close to the
mainland, don't count on it showing up in the Yahoo imagery.
