By Boat:	From Oak Head a 240 degree compass heading will take you to the harbor entrance. Pleasant Harbor is the second,larger marina when entering the harbor. Hood Canal Bridge Use chart 18473; 18477; 18476. The east end of the Hood Canal Floating Bridge has a vertical clearance of 55 feet. Clearance on the west end is 35 feet. While the bridge can be opened for larger vessels, it is not manned and you must call (360) 779-3233 to arrange an opening. You will reach a State Department of Transportation office in Tacoma, and they will answer "Olympic Radio." They will take your name, telephone number, name of your vessel, date and time of desired opening, and whether you are inbound or outbound. They will also ask what width opening you will need (300 feet or 600 feet). One hour's notice is needed to get a crew to the bridge and prepare it for opening. Rock Warnings Sisters, two substantial rocks about 200 yards apart, lie 0.4 mile south of the Hood Canal bridge on the west side. The rocks dry at half-tide. The southern rock is marked by a large lighted beacon, yet from time to time an unwary boat manages to go up on these rocks. For safety, if you have passed under the western end of the bridge, turn eastward at once and run to the middle of the bridge before turing south in to Hood Canal.
