Episode description
A US Navy ship arrives for tours in Astoria, the Rose Festival Fleet, and dredge season on the river
An opportunity Saturday to tour a US Navy ship that arrives at the Port of Astoria today. Likely the first of next week's Rose Festival Fleet of arriving ships, including the USCG tall ship Eagle.
And it's dredge season on the Columbia River - and we'll be seeing at least one of these specialized vessels on the river for the rest of the year, doing her part to keep our ship channel free and clear for vessels. We'll talk about what these ships do here and about their special role in the maritime industry.
