thats some serious S%^T there... very suprising that it didnt stay upside down , most likely a flat hull tug too!! we rolled our 44' motor lifeboat when i was in the coast guard..( the ones you see on the discovery channel jumping waves on the columbia river bar...) broke my nose and 2 fingers.. its a whole new perspective when you are upsidedown in the water.... mike

I have been across that bar many times...and hated it every time. I have seen the coast guard out there "practicing" there rollovers, that is crazy stuff. It is always makes me nervous when the current is running so strong in two directions that you can feel the hull of the boat twisting under your feet. The best is when you are out there in a good size boat taking a beating cuz the water is rougher than hell, and there is two long haired guys in a 12 foot smokercraft boat with a 30 horse outboard fishing away. Just them, there 2 cases of beer and a dog, (there is always a dog for some reason).

the dog is usually the only one who you pull out of the water alive...
and for the record.. they dont practice rolling over.. it's learning NOT too thats the trick...

I didn't have any problems with reading the full story. If that site is causing any problems I apologize for linking it. It ran fine for me
