I went to the USCG museum, the one in the video, and was amazed at this end of the Columbia River. I didn't know about it until I went out there to meet my mom who was traveling on a cruise ship and wanted to meet me there at the port for my birthday that year. We went to the museum and had lunch, toured the town and then she and her partner got back on the ship.

Inside the entrance to the museum is one of the boats suspended to illustrated how they get nearly perpendicular to the planet when in some of those waves. Just amazing.
