    Nigata Pref. Sadoshi Ogimachi 1935
    This tourist boat dock in Ogi Port is a four-minute walk from Sado Kisen. It is popular for its taraibune (wash tub boat) rides, one of Sado's key tourist attractions. The relaxing boats, which seat up to three adults, can be paddled by an oarswoman or by the passengers themselves. While the boats might appear unstable, they are surprisingly hard to capsize, making riding one like taking a leisurely stroll on the ocean. The dock also offers motorboat tours of the Ogi Coast lasting between 10 to 35 minutes, as well as high-speed sightseeing boats (group reservation required).

    漕いでくれる女性がいて私たちは乗っているだけ。 揺れることは揺れるも救命胴衣付けることもないので安全なのだろう。 港の中をグルっと回るだけなので景色が変わらないのは残念であった。 たらい船は3か所あるみたい 小木・宿根木・矢島と。小木・矢島はたらい船安定のための仕掛けがあるようだが、宿根木は本来のたらい船の様である。
