I was simply enchanted with the secluded cover that harbors a secret. ( hint: government censorship and survival)
Once arriving in Mie after 200 + Nautical mile solo sail from Tokyo without a working autohelm and AIS. But I wanted to keep moving so I invited crew to join me for April and I renewed my offshore permit so I could continue my offshore training. But as it turned out one of my crew suffered from seasickness so I changed plans and decided to enjoy coastal cruising.
Kiku fishing harbor is a sheer delight for the yachtsman. Room for only one or two yachts this harbor has a lot to offer.

It's not about the goal. It's about the journey. Of course, you knew that before, but somehow you had to rediscover that for yourself. This feels much more natural. And it's more enjoyable for me as a viewer. I feel less nervous about your plans.

I lived in Tanabe on the other side of the Kii hanto and they still talk about that earthquake as well. No tsunami but a lot of village homes flattened by the shaking.

Ok , I understand that you scared to talk , so I will try to ask you , my boat don't have engine so can I go more then 36 km from shore, I did understand that license to the boat I don't need , 26 ft 3 tons no engine ,

I am not sure I understand your question. The rules for license etc differ from country to country. Are you in Japan.? In Japan, you only need a license to operate a boat with an engine. If you are undersail you do not need a license.
