A story of survival on the Columbia River Bar On this day, 52 years ago, a commercial fishing boat sank on the Columbia River Bar. KMUN comentator Michael McCusker was aboard. He and his crewmates survived, thanks to the quick intervention of fellow mariners. I've shared his story before on the show, but not on the anniversary of its occurrence. Today we take a closer look. We commemorate the anniversary of his rescue, and talk about what happened to the boat that caused it to sink in a matter of minutes. It's a cautionary tale about where you should and should not go on the Columbia River Bar in a boat. And, thanks to Michael, it's a darn good sea story. Transcript here: http://shipreport.nfshost.com/audio/SRTranscript082924.pdf
Who's on the river today, and a look at an upcoming interview series Today we'll look at daily ship traffic and where it's headed, and also a heads up that I'll be taking some vacation time for the next week and a half. While I'm gone the show will air as usual and you'll be hearing an extended interview I did with author John Kopp about his 2023 book, CG41332, about a USCG tragedy that happened on the Columbia River Bar in 1975. Ship Report radio shows and podcasts will continue to air as usual on KMUN, the Ship Report website (at shipreport.net), Facebook and on Apple and Spotify. Ship schedules and marine weather reports will return in Monday, July 29. If you'd like to follow ship traffic during that time you can find some vessel information on the Columbia River Bar Pilots and Columbia River Pilot websites, and of course in real time on vesselfinder and marinetraffic. You'll find local marine weather forecasts at: https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/data/Forecasts/FZUS56.KPQR.html
A gem from the archives: the sinking of the Meteor I need to take the next few days off, and so we'll hear a few shows from the Ship Report archives. The two part show that you'll hear today and tomorrow is a listener favorite: the true story of the sinking of the commercial fishing boat Meteor on the Columbia River Bar, told as no one else can by Michael McCusker. You can hear Michael Thursdays on KMUN radio in Astoria, with his insightful show, "A Story Told." Among the many hats Michael has worn in his life is being a commercial fisherman. Here's his story of how he was the last man standing as the boat he was working on, the Meteor, sank on the bar. We'll hear the finale tomorrow Show transcript here: http://shipreport.nfshost.com/audio/SRTranscript062624,pdf

Ned Heavenrich is a local musician, known for his work as a founding member of The Brownsmead Flats. On this warm summer day, Ned dropped by the studio to chat about his childhood outside Detroit, making his way across the county as a hitchhiker, deciding to become a commercial fisherman, and eventually making his way to the Oregon Coast where he wrote and produced a musical that told the whole story. Topics that you will hear: Ned's time as a KMUN radio DJ. The secrets to aging without cognitive decline. Watching friends leave for the Vietnam war. The best way to eat albacore tuna.
