Description

With its smooth, sandy beach, the quiet coastal the town of Pacific City, at the coast of Oregon’s Tillamook County, is the very best home for a unique group of boats. The Pacific City dory fleet has a proud history spanning more than 100 years. Nestled within the natural shelter provided by Cape Kiwanda, the fleet lives on these days as one of the crucial interesting fishing fleets on this planet. The small flat-bottomed boats dare the sea as they crash During the surf headed for the plentiful waters of the Pacific. At day’s end, they ride the waves back to shore and slide onto the beach. The unique design of the dory allows it to launch from and land at the shore. During the inherent dangers of ocean fishing, governmental restriction, international fishing competition, and, most recently, the influx of surfers and civilization, the dedicated fishermen have held on to tradition.
