Great video and narration. I moved to Garibaldi in 1972 and bought the 37' salmon troller "Mar-Shel" which was moored there. I owned it for 29 years. I remember seeing the Kilchis tied up at Hoy Bros. around 1970. It was a sad loss. Those were really the days back then. Gone forever I'm afraid.

I found this video on you tube and forwarded to my buddy that grew up on the coast . He was friends with these folks and remembered the kilchi's going down . On a sad note the little boy at 12:53 also lost his life on that same bar when he was 17 yrs when his boat pitch poled in rough sea's .

Great video! Thanks for sharing. Went crabbing there and spent time on the Spit as a kid in the 70s. Didn’t know about the Kilchis. Cool seeing the Morning Star in the water.

The Tillamook Bar is dangerous on a calm day. The worst bar I have ever crossed.
