Columbia River Ship Traffic : The Ship Report

Columbia River Ship Schedule

Tuesday, July 16, 2024

Vacation Note: The Ship Report will be on vacation from Wednesday, July 17, through Friday, July 26.

During that time, Ship Report radio shows and podcasts will continue to air as usual on KMUN, the Ship Report website (shipreport.net) Facebook, and on Apple and Spotify.

Ship schedules and marine weather reports will return on Monday, July 29. If you’d like to follow ship traffic during that time you can find some vessel information on the Columbia River Bar Pilot and Columbia River Pilot websites, and of course in real time on vesselfinder and marinetraffic. You’ll find local marine weather forecasts at: https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/data/Forecasts/FZUS56.KPQR.html

Note: Because we are primarily an export region, the majority of merchant ships traveling on the Columbia are here to load cargo and deliver it elsewhere. Ships that are here to deliver cargo are marked “(D).” Ships delivering cargo here that do not have a return cargo to pick up before they leave the river can take on ballast water, to replace the weight and stability that cargo afforded them on their inbound journey. Transit times are approximate and may change without notice.
