Fixing Mistakes & Sailing into Oregons Most Dangerous Bar Vlog#5

Vlog#5 We explore Grays Harbour and have a look at some sea lions. Jess fixes our sail that we ripped along the way. After the gale passes over we head back out into the ocean for an overnight sail down to Tillamook Bay. We were really scared about this bar crossing, everything we could find online about it said it was the most dangerous bar on the whole coast. There has been many crazy storms, and unfortunately many tragic deaths. We were happily surprised that our planning of the tide and weather was perfect. It was completely calm when we went through, there was even fishing boats right in the middle of it fishing!! We motored up the river into Garabaldi where tied up at the marina. It was really quiet at this marina compared to other ones we stayed at as there's no sea lions because they don't allow the fishermen to throw their scraps anywhere nearby! Since this is such a dangerous bar that not many cruisers bother going to, theres not many amenities at the marina. Its basically just a slip, and you pay on the honour system. One of the local fisherman pulled up and offered us some crab as he had caught more than we was allowed! This was the first time Jessica has ever eaten a crab, always been a vegetarian, but now living on the water its time to start eating seafood!! There was a scenic steam train that ran along the coast, we wish we wouldve went on it, but it was out of our budget, and we weren't planning to stay very long here. --------------------------------- Instagram- @Sailingdecorum --------------------------------- --------------------------------- *WHO ARE WE?* •We are a Canadian couple, Travis and Jessica.
