Description
Sail Training Ship NIPPON MARU was built in 1930
as a training ship for cadets. The ship brought up 11,500 cadets
for 54 years until her retirement as a training ship in 1984.
During her service, NIPPON MARU logged 45.4 times around the
earth (1,830,000 kilometers in total). The ship was placed under
the authority of the City of Yokohama in 1984 and has been
open to the public since 1985.
NIPPON MARU is also used for a full-sail exhibit in
cooperation with volunteers and provides marine educational
programs to students.
