Ashikita Utase-bune (Sail Boats)
A boat gliding across the Shiranui Sea with its large white sail spread wide. The sight of pulling nets relying solely on the wind is like watching a lady of the sea. Utase-bune are boats used in a traditional fishing method where nets are pulled using only the power of the wind caught by the sails. Their elegant appearance is known as a symbol of the Shiranui Sea and is a seasonal tradition of Ashikita. The nets dragging along the seabed catch items such as Japanese tiger prawns, crab, and mantis shrimp. A specialty is enjoying them as tempura freshly prepared on board; dining while gazing at the white sails is an extraordinary experience. Today, they are also enjoyed as sightseeing boats. The bounty of the Shiranui Sea brought by wind and sail. Please taste exceptional freshness along with an elegant boat journey.
