Boat to Japan

[username5433]

HI. I was woundering is any one new of a way to get to Japan by boat. It would be cool to work on a boat on its way to japan. It would also be cheaper probably. Well if you know of anything please share.

Very long trip, I suppose it could happen.. I am not very knowledgeable about this but you would have to find a company that ports in Japan, but you might now stay there very long as most boats dont stay for long when they port.

If You Could Find One That ...

stopped at many, many ports, it could work out great!
Of corse, you could always join the US Navy and get
stationed there!

I made Korea Japan by boat... Well, you 'll just have to work for one night, so it's pretty cool! But from the US, I'm pretty sure the Pacific Float needs some volunteers, and there must be some tactician exercises not far from Hawaii and thus maybe the Oganasewara Islands, 1500 km far from Tokyo, but belonging to Tokyo prefecture. From Ferry to ferry, then you'll make your way to Japan!

Another way is from China, maybe you could first go to China, and then embark on a boat from Shangai to Japan, which is pretty common, daily I would say. Check with merchandise boat, or postal boat...

Have a good trip!
