Stopped at sea by the Coast Guard #solosailor #japan #voyage

The charm of the Japanese Coast, on and off land continues to delight. This three-day voyage starts with my final preparations before departure. I am touched and inspired by the people I meet along the way. Shibafuji san, took me to his boatyard where he not only showed me the 200-year-old Japanese Sailboat he is restoring but also gave me wood for my fender boards. These boards are helpful when docking against hard walls in some fishing points. He also helped me buy a ladder for those same harbors. I am grateful to Mr. Okumoto, a friend of Mr. Shibafuji, who invited me to moor next to his boat at one of my stops along the way.
My voyage ended rounding the cape and just two miles from the Harbor entrance of Tosa Shimizu, I was stopped at sea by the Japanese Coast Guard who wanted to inspect my papers. . . . again!
And I was inspired by a fellow solo sailor who has a Sail-Run-Sail project. Like me have started sailing life. late ( age 60) but he has continued his lifelong passion of being a marathon distance runner. He has a project to sail and run the 88 temple pilgrimage circuit.
