Movie locations for "Double Jeopardy"

We watched an older movie on the tube last night, "Double Jeopardy". Quite a bit of the story is supposed to take place down here on Whidbey Island but it looks more like Vancouver area. The wife and I were trying to guess where some of the ferry scenes were shot and guess it might be the Earl Cove Ferry but we weren't sure as we only go by there now and then on our way up to Princess Louisa. Anyone know where those scenes were shot?

Jody's got it covered, I'd guess, but I do know the ferry scenes were filmed in Howe Sound, with the ferry being an out-of-use small BC ferry similar to that used for the Woodfibre mill site until its recent closure. The water scenes and "escape" from the submerged car were done at and across from Porteau Cove Marine Park which has an emergency ferry terminal. The beach where Ashley swam ashore is a place known as "5 Coves" or "Zorro Bay", also in Howe Sound.

Good movie, better book, nice scenery.
