Boat ride - Yoribune

Japanese: 寄船 - よりぶね

Since the Kamakura and Muromachi periods, this term refers to ships that have washed ashore or drifted. It was customary for ships without crew or unknown owners to become the property of the finder or the local shrine or temple, along with their cargo. However, because the profits from these ships were enormous, they were often illegally seized under the guise of being seized, and so a ban on this practice was issued. Illegal seizure of ships from ships came to the shore less and less after the Edo period.

Japanese:

鎌倉～室町時代以来，漂着または漂流する船をいう。乗員不在，持主不明の寄船は，積荷とも発見者またはその地の社寺のものとなる慣例であった。しかしその収益が莫大であったため，しばしば寄船と称し不法奪取が行われたので，これに関する禁令が出された。江戸時代以降，寄船の不法奪取は減少した。
