Yaquina Bay Messabout Spot?
More info from Warren Jordan (he designed my boat
http://www.jordanwoodboats.com/): ------------------------------------------------------------------- Sawyer's Landing is a nice little marina about 5 miles up the north bay road from Newport. They have a hoist launch and a little store and docks and campground facilities...very cozy place. Criteser's only has a marine railways for haulout and repair, but no launch facilities, as far as I know. ------------------------------------------------------------------- I sort of favor having the messabout up the bay a ways. The wind would probably be steadier and stronger near South Beach, but Sawyer's Landing is close to a couple of interesting looking backwaters to explore. It sounds like a nice place too. I'll check it out next week. It's just about where my guess put it on the map in the files section. The tides for July 14 are pretty much neaps with a low high tide at about 7:30 in the morning at Yaquina (near Sawyer's Landing), a low tide at about 1:15 and then a higher high tide at about 8:00 in the evening. Perhaps not the best for exploring shallow sloughs, but the currents shouldn't be too strong. -- John <jkohnen@boat-links.com> http://www.boat-links.com/ One must have a heart of stone to read the death of Little Nell by Dickens without laughing. <Oscar Wilde>
