The Boat Captain

Fay Archive - Field Test No. 33

Abashiri Harbour, Japan

The Fay Archive team's journey in Japan continues. Here we are in Abashiri Harbour in the north-eastern part of the island of Hokkaido, where Marukawa Asakura Shoten, the captain of a trawler sailing through the ice, lives. At night, when the temperatures fall and forecasting along the route is tricky, the journey is difficult.

"The difficulty of working in the ice is when you head out and can't see anything, trying to follow your course in the dark and forecast along the route".

This is why, before setting sail, it's vital to check all the instruments and lights on board to ensure that everything is in perfect working order.
