In case anyone in the PNW didn't know, our state geologists have been developing tsunami inundation and evacuation maps all along the coast.
Oregon Geology and Sea Grant have a new tsunami guidance brochure just for boaters. https://www.oregongeology.org/pubs/tsubrochures/TsunamiBrochureMaritime.pdf
When should you consider taking the boat to sea? When should you forget the boat and run? What do you do if you're already at sea?
They are slowly releasing port-specific guidance. So far available for Newport and Astoria.
