Depoe Bay, Oregon claims to be the world's smallest navigable harbor. It is approximately 6 acres in size. The bridge in the background of this scene spans the entrance to the harbor. It may be only 20 metres in width. Entering the harbor can be tricky. Recently I watched a Coast Guard vessel navigating the harbor entrance. It had to idle off shore for quite some time, waiting for the surf action to be just right so it could thread the needle into the harbor. When the captain sensed the waves were just right, he gunned the engines and raced through the narrow opening. It was exciting to watch. I imagine it was even more exciting to do.
