It takes three men to navigate each flat-bottomed boat.
Each team takes a turn at the rudder, oar and a pole (used to guide the boat away from rocks and push it clear of the more dangerous parts of the river). -
Kameoka (亀岡市) prospered as a port after the creation of the Sanin-dō Highway (山陰道) some time between the 7th-8thC.
