Jiyuu Maritime Fleet

The Jiyuu Maritime Fleet is a subsidiary venture of the Yugumo Corporation specializing in tourism and entertainment founded in early YE 43.

A Passion of the Evening Orchid

Ketsurui-Motoyoshi Katsuko has always had a passion for the sea, dating back to her time spent on Taiie. It was no surprise when she became aware of the availability of Viking-style Longships in the Big Salvage Swap Meet of YE 42, she reached out to the Yugumo Corporation's Fuku-Kaichō Motoyoshi-Igarashi Yuka to acquire these vessels. Originally the plan was to add the ships to her own personal collection of sailing ships which included the The Dream of Taii, a galleon-style sailing ship that had become a favorite vacation location for members of the Motoyoshi Clan.

In an overwhelming response, a hundred of the vessels were acquired. (See: Interest in Viking-style Longships) Since the number of these vessels were so high, it was decided that the Yugumo Corporation would utilize this fleet of vessels to offer tours of the Motoyoshi Channel and Maritime adventures on Jiyuu III.

The venture would provide guided sailing adventures and rentals around Tokyo harbor.
