The name of the small rocky island with an electrical relay station on it was "Cable Junction" island. This was actually a set that caused numerous problems during filming. The island was made from plastic / fiberglass material and was set on two barges. The surface of it was so slippery it was difficult to traverse it or even grab hold of it. This resulted in numerous retakes having to be shot, with actors slipping and falling off it constantly. Due to not being anchored properly, it once drifted away into the ocean, and the production had to go out and tug it back. In The Making of 'Jaws 2' (2001) DVD documentary, director Jeannot Szwarc recounted the day when he was informed that his island set was "on its way to Cuba".
