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.
