Crossing the Noyo River Bar - Vintage Footage, November 1987 

Note the USCG boat attempting to "break" the swell for the fishing boats to enter. The boats had been idling outside the entrance for over 24 hours, waiting for a break in the weather so they could come home. June II's load of Dungeness crab inside the hull shifts and the boat keels over, but it makes it in safely.
(Sorry about the quality, this is from a DVD of a VHS of a VHS ... )
