Background

"Sleepy Bay Channel offers both aviators and sailors alike a rest stop between long grid flights. A relaxing oasis awaits the weary SL traveler. Also equipped with 7-seas fishing throughout the parcel."

― Sleepy Bay Channel management.

Sleepy Bay Channel Airfield is a floating wooden airport constructed almost entirely from logs, planks and rope. Its single, short runway is lined by torches for a rustic, primitive feel. All airport facilities are located to the west of the runway, largely concealed by a large rock-face. For ease of landing, the facility is surrounded by protected ocean on its east and west borders, and a large lit lighthouse marks its eastern border.
