Watching the Coast Guard do drills out on the Columbia is fascinating!
U.S. Coast Guard Base Astoria in Warrenton, Oregon, serves as a vital Pacific Northwest hub for high-risk maritime rescue and aviation operations.
They operate heavy-duty MH-60 Jayhawk helicopters for critical all-weather missions.

Pretty cool getting to see a pod of orcas in the river during training in the Columbia River this morning!

Our Arrow family is pretty accustomed to having a Coast Guard helicopter overhead but last night was special. Did you know 4 Astoria Fishermen football players deckhand on the Arrow? So when that helo showed up as 3 of the 4 of them were taking the field for the coin toss, it was pretty cool!! Thank you to the USCG for being amazing partners on and off the river.

Just another day on the river! 🚁⚓

Watch what happens when a USCG MH-60 Jayhawk drops an active-duty rescue swimmer directly onto Captain Mark Schacher’s historic tugboat, the Arrow No. 2, for live hoist training and a quick chat in the wheelhouse.

High-stakes precision outside, calm conversation inside.
