>      Hang On ! This  video is of commercial fishing boats re-

> turning from fishing off the coast of Washington & Oregon. 
> They are crossing the Columbia Bar, which is the site the
> Columbia River meets the Pacific Ocean. This
> is designated as one of the most dangerous ports of entry
> anywhere in the world. There are at least eight to 10 deaths
> per year with people trying to get in or out in boats that
> are not made for this kind of severe beating - the kind you
> will see these boats going through. These
> boats are self-righting, have a super low center of gravity,
> sealed engine compartments, basically bullet proof glass
> windows, double steel hulls. Well, you get the
> idea. They
> are commercial shrimp and fishing boats. The Coast Guard
> has
> closed it to any other boats due to waves of 35 to 45 feet.
> It is quite a sight to see. Watch the You-tube video and
> determine if you would like to have been a crew member
> on either of these two vessels. Columbia
> River bar - let's go fishing !
