July 1, 1999 Started from Kodakara, Arrive at Akuseki.

At 7:42 AM today, Kohno telephoned the Expedition Office,
"We are leaving Kodakara at 7:45 AM, rowing toward Akuseki Island. It is cloudy with a southwesterly wind. We will arrive 6 hours later."
(The distance between Kodakara and Akuseki is about 35 kilometers.)

At 20:30 PM, the Office received a second call from him. He said "We arrived at Akuseki at 12:50. It was a strong wind from the south easter and wave swells.

We were carried away by tidal current but it was not so big probelm to arrive at Yasura-hama port. It is small fishing port with slope for fishing boats. When we were at port, the Maritime Safety Agency's ship comes alongside after unloading. So we talked with the marshal of the Maritime Safety Agency."

"We will sleep in tents, tonight. We had supper. It is cloudy and thundering. We will voyage to Suwanose island 8:00 AM tomorrow morning."
