NotesThis is part of a longstanding series of publications (Pleasure boating in Oregon, Statewide boating survey, Oregon recreational boating survey) surveying recreational boating in Oregon and published every three years. It examines the type, extent and locality of recreational boating and identifies issues faced by boaters, from poor infrastructure to illegal practices (or, “jerks on the water”). The Colombia and Willamette Rivers were the most heavily used waterways, followed by the Pacific Ocean. Tillamook Bay was the most heavily-used estuary, followed by Alsea Bay.
