rent a boat

[mollens]

Hi guys, I´m going to Tokyo to Japan next year with friends of mine. We are 4 people and we want to rent a boat.
So we are looking for some advices. At first we are looking for a marina, it should be nearby Tokyo or Hiroshima but it's not a condition and what is important for us is a nature. Could you recommend us some interesting places to visit with a boat? We will appreciate every little help. Actually we don´t know where to start. We will be very grateful for any webpages, maps, tips and people which you can tell to us or recommend to us.

I´m sorry if I´m off topic. I didn´t know where to post it. If it´s a better place please tell me. Thank you.

I have a feeling renting a boat in Japan is not as easy as renting a car. I'm sure you'd need to know the language, how to read charts, nautical terms, safety, etc. I don't think this is going to be easy, if possible....

I've never tried to rent a boat when I was there, but the ocean waves I saw scared me....
