My town Brookings, The Chetco river.

We stayed in Brookings one night on a trip down the coast highway. Pretty place. I remember eating at a restaurant at a large marina & walking at sunset enjoying the peaceful scenery.

Great photos of the craft/crew going through the training maneuvers.

Great photos again, Viking. And those guys are either bad ars or somebody turned to port when they should have went starboard.

My bones hurt just from looking at that pounding !!

I've seen pics of water tight boats they have that can do a complete roll and pop up like a cork. With the men on the flying bridge I don't thinkthe boat in these pics is one of them.

A lot of people bad mouth the Coast Guard. I used to have a charter fishing business in Michigan. They are a BRANCH of US Service people that have my DEEPEST REGARDS !!!! I have seen them go on rescues when it looked dangerous for a submarine to go out. They risk there and equjipment when someone is in DANGER>< to them i say THANK YOU PEOPLE for all that you do . I STRONGLY SUPPORT our coast guard and give them thanks.
