Pages About Boating And Saling

An elderly Rikutsu-Kone-Taro with zero boating experience suddenly embarks on a boat life with a 28Ft (probably around that size) boat. (About six months later, Rikurtsu-Kone-Taro also started with a Yamaha 31Ft yacht.)

Japan wher He was born and has bee living is located in the far east of Northeast Asia, bordered by the Sea of Japan to the west and the vast Pacific Ocean to the east. Formed by a long archipelago extending from Hokkaido to the Okinawa Islands, Japan, despite various debates, is a fortunate country where people, under a nearly unified national consciousness, operate a free, democratic, and rule-of-law-based state with a sense of belonging to the nation of Japan.

Considering this geopolitical advantage, Rikutsu-Kone-Taro has believed since elementary school that the Japanese should enjoy the sea, especially the Pacific, more.

He wishes to thoroughly enjoy this abundant sea, utilizing boats and modern electronic devices.

Below is the record of the realization of ‘Logical Connection Rikutsu-Kone-Taro’s’ ambitions… I hope you enjoy it.
