A fishing pier stretches into tranquil waters along the Oregon Coast in Garibaldi.

The legacy of the U.S. Life-Saving Service came to the West Coast much later. The Pier’s End Historic Coast Guard Boathouse was one of the last of its kind to be commissioned, and remains the last of its kind in the Pacific Northwest. It served the communities of Tillamook Bay from 1937 to the early 1960s, housing two 36-foot motorized lifeboats and one 26-foot oar-powered surfboat—and to think that a rescue would be successfully negotiated in an oar-powered boat during the storm swells of Tillamook Bay
