Chosen by the people of Oma Town, the restored name reflects the energy and prosperity of that era while expressing a commitment to creating new vitality and connections in the region. The vessel accommodates 478 passengers and can carry up to 21 trucks or 60 passenger vehicles. Designed with relaxation in mind, the interior draws inspiration from traditional Japanese architecture, featuring stepping-stone-style walkways and ceiling designs reminiscent of the eaves of a Japanese home.
