A tsunami lifeboat is located at the Yuasa town sightseeing parking lot.

This is a 25-person tsunami evacuation shelter made of aluminum alloy that floats like a ship when flooded.

A major advantage is that you can evacuate regardless of the height of the tsunami.

If there is a risk of a tsunami, the golden rule is to evacuate to higher ground, but this lifeboat serves as an evacuation facility when evacuating to higher ground is absolutely difficult.

Tsunami lifeboat equipment

Equipment includes distress signals, toilets, and a week's worth of food and drinking water.

Lock box automatically unlocks in the event of an earthquake

Since the lifeboat is locked during normal times, it is located near the lifeboat entrance stairs.
This is a key box that automatically opens in the event of an earthquake with a seismic intensity of lower 5 or higher, and contains the key to the lifeboat entrance.

In this way, it will become a tsunami-prepared evacuation facility equipped with the supplies necessary for survival.
Please use it correctly if you cannot evacuate to higher ground in time.
