Outrageous
The pictures above are from a trip Chris and took to Astoria Oregon last Wednesday (july 1st). We were in the itsy bitsy tiny red jetboat pictured between a couple yachts. We took the trip because we love "jet boats". We've been on them on the Willamette, a nice calm little river, compared to the Columbia. Anyhow, on this trip our little jet boat was tossed around on the Willamette. Everyone on board ended up bruised and sore. The Capt. said that it was the roughest he had ever seen it.
Chris watched her pedometer and just from sitting in the boat she moved enough to have walked 2 miles. All those two miles were basically, the out little boat falling off on big wave and dropping anywhere from 2 to 6 feet and compressing all of our bodies. We all took a beating. I'm just now getting back on my feet again.
I did happen to get some wonderful photos before the waves got real bad. May want to check out Flicker site or Redbubble site for more photos.
