From Cape Blanco up to Yaquina head is 18580 http://sailvector.com/1791/Cape-Blanco-to-Yaquina-Head.

That's a good site. I was using the noaa chart viewer:

Sailvector zooms in more, i like it. You can print out the section you want too and take it with you for reference.

cool now if only knew wat i was looking at

do all the numbers represent depths?

yep, depths and are in feet, not fathoms.

Depth of the chart of the Strait is in fathoms.  Extremely useful site, thanks for the link!!!

Awesome site Jay!  Thanks!!!

hmm, so I guess you have to look at the legend on each individual chart to check for feet or fathoms. Most of the ones i looked at were in feet

Unfortunately, NOAA did some updating so that site is no good.  Here is the new one.

Also add it to my signature if anyone ever needs it.

There is also this:

I remember when Roy used to post... 

Yep always had something good to say or share. Hope its not because someone offended him.

Nice site. 

I saved one of the photos so that I can take it with me Sturgeon fishing.  Who on here wants to take a look at it and help me figure out a few places to drop some bait?

I'd rather do it via PM.

Thanks all.
