Chaotic

From anchored cruise ships, to liters, to kayakers, locals, and
commercial fishing boats, landing a float plane in our channel
offers the most difficult task our pilots have to face. Charter
boats have the same problems. Working on a charter boat myself,
I know how hard it is to "dodge" the kayakers that
are sometimes nearly impossible to see, to float planes landing,
to other charter boats, plus all the locals, and having to stay
away from the cruise ships for security reasons. So, if it looks
like it's chaotic in the channel...IT IS!
