this orange boat is Garinko-go 2 which is second ice breaking boat for tourist.
the drift ice crusing by this boat is famus as winter activity in Okhotsk.
it has two big silver color drills.
they are used to break thick ice as going into drift ice sea.
this action is the characteristics of this boat.
the reason it is called garinko-go, because "gari-gari" means the sound of carving ice.
today, drift ice is about 30km from coastline of mombetsu.
it's too far to reach drift ice zone by garinko-go.
i think a commercial clusing is within about 10km from it's port.
in this cace, garinko-go cruse around port.
Mombetsu port is one of the big port in Hokkaido.
