Landing on a small island

Here are a few short videos taken recently by St. Hazards owner Ed in St. Barths showing some landings and take-offs of planes from their very small airport. The runway is only 2,133 ft. long and is considered to be the third most dangerous commercial airport in the world.
The Middle Bass Island airport is shorter at 1,852 ft., but does not have a mountain on one end.
St. Hazards was inspired by St. Barths and many of our ideas come from there.

Le Select Party in St. Barths

Our friend Marius had a great party on Saturday at his Le Select bar in St. Barths. A link to the 50 second video is below. As you walk into this 61 year old bar you'll see the St. Hazards flag. Marius can be seen seated in the video and he has been our friend for many years.

Friends of Hazards in St. Barths

Today Marius Stakelborough was seen wearing his Hazards cap at his bar in St. Barths called LeSelect.

Marius started LeSelect more than 61 years ago and has had everyone from the king of Sweden to David Rockefeller to Jimmy Buffett come by to chat. Jimmy liked it so much he lets them use Cheeseburger in Paradise for the name of the snack bar.

The top photo shows the St. Barths town of Gustavia. LeSelect would be in the top left area of the photo. This was taken by Hazards owner Ed on Feb. 11 as the plane was approaching the airport.

St. Barths is about 1,000 miles southeast of Miami. Lots of friends from St. Barths have visited St. Hazards over the years.

St. Hazards at the Cleveland Boat Show

The Cleveland Boat show is open until Sunday, Jan. 23rd and St. hazards has an exhibit located very close to the Put-in-Bay area. New this year is a scratch off card contest for all that stop by. All of the free cards have some kind of prize from free docking, gift certificates to discounts on lodging.

Bali Traffic

While in Bali, Indonesia recently to work on ideas for St. Hazards, a couple of brief videos were made to show how bad traffic is. Bali and Middle Bass have one thing in common: No traffic lights or stop signs. Actually there are a couple of stop signs on Middle Bass.

Traffic is constantly heavy and you need to weave in and out to keep moving. It's chaos all day.
These two short videos were made by St. Hazards owner Ed and uploaded to YouTube.
