Coast Guard hazardous seas...Humboldt Bay

[Apache1334]

Correction again. Motor life boats. Cutters are 65 feet and larger. The 'cuda in eureka is a cutter.

[JBTester30]

If this were Station Grays Harbor they would have flipped out because of the surfers...

[93CFD]

those are some tough boats.

[scottwilliams83]

@thehorrortastic that's why the navy requires lower ASVAB scores and offers navy tours of duty in lieu of prison.... Sounds was better. How'd you come up on this video anyway? Having second thoughts about your career choice and wanted to day dream again?

[cogglers]

Lol i was at that spot a few days ago its the jetti

[robert3302]

The Pacific Ocean currents off Northern California come straight south from Alaska. In addition to the high waves, there is a strong rip tide, treacherous undertow and the water is freezing cold. It takes a special kind of stupid to go out into that water with nothing more than a fiberglass board or a little jet-ski.

[maxp0w3r]

I would love to join the CG, just to experience the boat ride over the waves. ahihi.

[swedefinn101]

Hey that was Craig Spujt surfing the entrance!

[horsebackrider710]

Those men and women of the USCG are some of the bravest I have ever seen. God bless the Coast Guard.

[TheHorrorTastic]

@horsebackrider710 Yeah no there not there Bitches the Navy Is way better.

[horsebackrider710]

@TheHorrorTastic Didn't quite understand that...

[TheHorrorTastic]

@horsebackrider710 I Ment all people In the Coast Guard are bitches and the navy Is cool.

[horsebackrider710]

@TheHorrorTastic Well that's not true at all! I have family in both-more in the Navy, though-and I don't think that anyone brave enough to volunteer and risk their life is a 'bitch'. It's very disrespectful to both branches to say that.

[invitalizer]

I was stationed at Humboldt CG Station 92-96; back when 44s were there. We used to do surf drills when the bar was breaking tip to tip. The waves in this vid are actually pretty small compared. We would rarely drill in the "middle ground" as shown here.

[truckercns]

those boats are self righting you can roll them and they come right back up

[rsuthe00]

wow, guess if they get caught broadsided there done!

[nmewe1]

oh my kayak can handle that O.o maybe ??

[757930]

Surfers: no life vest...no radio....no $2 million dollar boat. Just your everyday waterman

who can read the Ocean unlike no other.

[XxLastBull3txX]

Best day to kayak!

[clarkewi]

@XxLastBull3txX Tsunami Rangers!!!!

[clarkewi]

Shows you the power of those waves.

[2JAMMY]

Some great shots there - nice!

[foreverironic]

out of all the coastie vids thats probably one of the better ones I have seen

[bert666666]

Too bad the left seems better than the right, but the coast guards were on the wave...

[seadoggiedog]

sweet

[nxmoparmatt84]

he he nice video taken from the north jetty here in samoa across the Humboldt bay from Eureka

[msfootball66]

are they testing the sturdiness or what? and are people aloud to be surf boarding?

[Derail07]

@msfootball66 - surf boarding? LMAO

[MrBillLumberg]

@msfootball66 lol, its called "surfing" and who is going to stop them?

[350z350zify]

proud to have the best coast guard force in the USA

[xXCanadaKidXx]

[giddydog1]

Awesome video

[OregonBoysVideo]

Sorry to all the men and women of the USCG and viewers, I realized I put cutters when I should have typed LIFEBOATS! I didn't realize this until after I uploaded the video.

Oregonboysvideo.

[sharkyeeed]

@OregonBoysVideo i would love to see the boat side on against it, any fkn boat will ride over the waves bow into it. in my opinion this boat is actually too short, fine boat tho. shes like a cork tho

[0perafan]

o.m.g. My daughter got her orders for Humboldt Bay after bootcamp graduation Jan 22, 2010.

[RBCproduction]

O_o, name of the music please = D 5/5

[Mario228l]

those are not coast guard cutters! they are U.S. Coast Guard Motor Lifeboats

[OregonBoysVideo]

Yeah I didn't realize it until after I uploaded the video.

[Mario228l]

no problem i used to think the same thing, so are you in the coast guard

[OregonBoysVideo]

No I was just lucky enough to catah these men and women training during a large swell event.

[Mario228l]

lucky you i wish i could catch something like that

[scottwilliams83]

Whos your daughter? I was on the boat with the flag on the HF antenna. The 217

[dancesilly2]

Chelsea Zimmerman. She is on the closest boat, the person ducking down behind the visor when the waves hit right in front!

[scottwilliams83]

oh ok cool. Yeah she's doing awesome over here. I think shes pretty close to getting boat crew qualified but I know everyone thinks highly of her.

[dancesilly2]

Aw, that's great. I know she tries really hard. We are proud of the fact she joined the Coast Guard, but I sure do miss her alot!

[pavlov0032]

yeah, what ever, in Hawaii these waves would not raise an eyebrow, so whats he big deal here all about?

[dancesilly2]

It's just a cool video with great music. Not meant to compete with Hawaii or anywhere else. It is what it is! I for one am glad this person made this video. My daughter is in the closest boat.

[racing16]

Who said this video was being compared to Hawaii? Last time I checked the description there is nothing in there that says"These are the biggest waves on the west coast". Blah Blah Blah... It says a large ocean swell impacted the Pacific Northwest Coast. So obiviously your comment shows your ignorance and your lack of reading the description.

[dancesilly2]

This is an awesome video. I love the music!!

[Zriggo]

In keeping with a Coast Guard theme, I couldn't help but notice: A story in the Virginian-Pilot by LaurEN KING published on NOV. 1, 2009 says: "The Coast Guard is scheduled to begin a commercial fishing safety effort today to coincide with the start of the cold-weather season, which brings rougher seas.

The Coast Guard will send boarding teams and dock-side examiners to check safety equipment through the cold-weather season, which ends APRIL 30.

[Zriggo]

This next tidbit may only interest those who grew up watching TV in the 1980s, but it's ironic that the Coast Guard's cold-weather season ends APRIL 30, since the date is the birthday of two stars of the NBC series "Riptide". In keeping with a COASTAL theme, the show, created by FRANK LUPo, featured Cody ALLEN (Perry KING) and Nick Ryder (Joe Penny) as two former army buddies who decided to open the Pier 56 Detective Agency (later known as the RIPTIDE Detective Agency) in Los Angeles.

[Zriggo]

"Riptide" also starred Thomas edWARD "Tom" BRAY as helicopter pilot Murray 'Boz' Bozinsky. BRAY was born APRIL 30, 1954 and will turn 56 when the Coast Guard's cold-weather season ends on 4/30/10. Perry FIREstone KING, who played Cody ALLEN on the show was born APRIL 30, 1948 and will turn 62 when the cold-weather season ends. Thomas edWARD "Tom" BRAY is unrelated to NFL wide receiver BRAYlon edWARDS, despite the 4413 primary school & edWARDS playing in CLEVELAND where there's HOPKINS Intl'

[dancesilly2]

The boats are Motor Life Boats, not Cutters....

[OregonBoysVideo]

Yeah I realized that after I posted the text. But what's done is done Wish I could fix it no way to edit it once it's posted.

[dancesilly2]

No biggie! No one would really know the difference anyway. It's an awsome video, thanks for taking and posting it. This is the first time I got to see her on the job and in training!

[dancesilly2]

My baby girl is on the front boat, in the furthest forward by the bow. She's only 20 years old. She's loving it but I am a nervous wreck however. We were always pulling her out of the drink when she was little. For some reason she was always falling in. I hope she holds on tight. Keep safe baby!!!

[racevws]

This reminds me of the scene from Happy Gilmore where he is standing in the batting cage just taking it on the chest

[BankOFganja]

there built for bigger waves

[nfusco618]

they're*

[wavefool]

Hey ya wanna get that toy boat out of the way there's some surfing going on here. Coast Guard eh, they're going the wrong way...

[plasticspacedisco]

the surfers are more hardcore than the coast guard in this vid.

[jbh1126]

sweet video

[375ultramag]

I am in Alaska and love my trips to Kodiak just to watch the USCG in action. You guys are amazing.

[375ultramag]

All I can fiind for Pierre Langer is where you can purchase the rights to his music. I DJ some hockey and would like to use this song. How did you get it.

[IsTheAlvin]

that was sick!

[375ultramag]

Can you tell me what song this is

[OregonBoysVideo]

The song Title is called Roaring. The artist is Pierre Langer.

[375ultramag]

Thanks. Great video BTW

[ervans]

Excellent video ! 5***** I was wondering when you were going to upload more videos

[OregonBoysVideo]
