Thanks to mntman for this clip, filmed by a crew of Coasties while under tow back to the port... Read it, then watch the clip. Pretty damn cool!

Coast of Oregon, south of Lincoln City. The entry to the port at Depoe Bay is pretty narrow, and ya hafta wait on the swells/waves to letcha slip into the actual port.You can pull it up on Google Earth, or that other link...Bing maybe

Watching boats (fishing, pleasure, etc.) entering through that hole is hypnotic...

Guys, let's get serious here. Some serious explosives, maybe a mini-nuke. A drawbridge. A railroad.

That's all it would take. Let's get this sucker down to neo-Panamax depth.
