   Yeah, the entire question is up to the rules you set up. Saying that   
   France has three coasts because of the short interruption of Monaco   
   is stretching things a bit.   
      
   Other definitions could be that the coasts must be on different waters   
   or in different directions.   
      
   Russia will always qualify, but you could also argue that Spain and   
   Canada do, since Gibraltar and Point Roberts sit on boundaries between   
   two different bodies of water. And if you remove the disqualification of   
   contiguous borders more countries would qualify, for instance the US.   
      
   When it comes to Point Roberts, it was clearly ruled out by the defintion   
   that Dan set up, since used US as an example with only two coasts. There   
   is no reason to assume that he would not know about Point Roberts given   
   where he lives.
