"Hiroshima" "Reclamation at Ujina?" "That's far" "The engine's old." "We can't go to Hiroshima twice a day" "But it's nice to have a regular job" "Right?" "Nothing's left after paying for the fuel" "Maybe it's even better to stay at home and sleep" "I've got to go, Grandpa" "Take care" "All right" "Goodbye" "Well, I've to go" "Let's eat with us" "No thanks" "Wait, I haven't paid you" "Never mind" "Mayumi!"

"I thought he'd lost his arm at that time" "You're exaggerating" "My man once got his hand caught in the derrick on a boat" "Yeah" "Then what?" "Somehow, she got him out of, taking his hand out of it" "I see" "Without sister in law not there, he'd have been crippled now." "Really?" "It's dangerous to work on boat" "Yes, it's never an easy task" "Can't work there forever" "You work very hard too, though you're thin" "Now, I go back to boat" "I couldn't work as hard as you do now" "You're stronger than me" "You're kidding" "When I worked with Brother, we had a lot of work" "They are reclaiming land for industrial use" "We earned 5500 yen a trip" "What about now?" "5000, I think" "And the price of gas has gone up" "Maintenance cost too, but our pay has gone down" "Brother now uses a dump truck to save time" "He want to win" "That won't help him forever" "Is that so?" "when I went home" "I saw Ishida's steel boat last time and I know" "Yes" "A 300-ton ship" "Ten times as big as yours" "A bulldozer unloads the rock quickly" "It saves on labor." "A wooden boat can't compare with it" "So I heard" "They use many trucks recently" "Lots of them" "Although the cost is higher" "They carry rock directly from mountains to sea" "The cost can then be minimized" "Now the traffic is also better" "That's right" "Now that working in a factory, like what I do, is easy" "It's... - shall I say... - the time?" "You can't beat the "The Big"" "This is a century." "Well, thanks." "Sister Kazue told me about a job in Onomichi" "Onomichi?" "Yes..." "Her husband's friend is working at a dockyard" "Yes..." "On an island called Mukaijima like our island" "It's a nice place" "We can get work there" "So she wrote on the letter" "In Onomichi?" "And what's Brother's opinion?" "He didn't quite mention it and it's hard for me to raise that matter" "Brother's stubborn when I decided to take my present job" "We quarreled" "Yes, that's true" "Is Father doing Ok?" "Yes, he's fine" "Tell him I'm alright" "I will."

"Yes, keeps going up" "We can't afford to let the children go to school" "That's right." "We can't live on like this" "I'm really worried" "We'll have to find another job some day" "How much do you have?" "Thirty thousand" "Thirty hundred thousand?" "We could finance you sixty hundred thousand" "Sixty hundred thousand?" "The largest loan we've ever made is 700,000 yen" "But you have to raise your contribution according" "Yes..." "In order to get a loan of 700,000yen..." "Your contribution has to be 35,000yen" "You'll need about 10000 yen more" "It is maximum before" "I warned a man not to build a ship" "If he wanted his child to go to school he'd better find a job in Hiroshima" "You can make a living easier that way" "But he was stubborn and said he didn't want to be an employee" "I said, "In that case, go ahead and build the ship"" "But his boat was so small" "The cost was high; income was low" "Finally he sold the boat" "We get to work by mini-bus now." "He's working in a dockyard everyday" "Don't you understand that?" "We can't beat the "Big"" "Seichi..." "Seichi..." "You look blue" "Dig in" "Have some soup first" "What a storm!"

"Dived in and checked it" "Even in midwinter?" "The seawater isn't in winter" "I see." "How was it at last?" "I waited for a boat to tow me" "How did you draw their attention?" "Take off my shirt and wave it" "If the ship was in a hurry, she might ignore your signal" "That'd never happen." "She'd give me a tow" "Really?" "Maybe that's the code of the sea" "I see" "In order to see Grandma," "She lit the matches" "Well" "She saw a woman in the glow" "Huh..." ""Grandmother!" The little girl cried" "She lit her matches one by one" "If she can't see her grandma, she'll be very sad" ""Oh, Grandma please take me with you.""

"I heard you had lost your wife, too" "Yes" "I've lived in many places, but... no place is like this village" "This is a nice island" "You think so?" "Cool in summer; warm in winter" "Fish taste good." "It's the best place in Japan" "Then why do people leave?" "Why don't they stay here?" "They can get better wages in town!" "Wage?" "That's true, but..." "We're back" "Welcome home" "Damn it!" "What's wrong?" "Damn that engine!" "Welcome, Ma'am." "You don't have many fish today" "Today, because of the storm" "No catch!" "What can I do?" "." "That's 150 yen a piece" "That's too expensive" "Too expensive?" "Name your price" "Sixty" "Sixty..." "How much is that yellow fish?" "Yellow fish?" "Well, 150 as well" "Thank you" "When did I build your boat?" "1953" "How old is she?" "19 years old 19 years." "That boat is so long lasting" "A rock-carrier usually lasts only 10 years" "Your brother worked with you." "Yes" "When did you get an engineer's license, Ma'am?" "Six years ago" "You did use the boat carefully" "One of the best boats I've ever built" "Try it, ma'am" "Thanks" "You too!" "Ok" "What do you say, carpenter?" "Well..." "How much is the repairing cost?" "I know it's about time to buy a new one, but..." "Nobody will buy this boat, and..." "I can't afford a new one" "So I have to fix the old one..." "It's hard to repair it" "I can't say how much it'll cost" "A rough estimate is enough" "The price of lumber has gone up lt'll cost more than a million yen" "I'm a carpenter." "I can repair it if you insist" "But in a year or so..." "It'll need repairing again" "It's now the age of steel boats" "Shipbuilding has been my family business" "But it won't last long" "The other day one of the boats" "I built was burned" "I didn't like seeing that" "You want it repaired?"

"Great help" "Good" "Skipper" "I saw your ship at the dockyard today" "For repairing?" "It cost so much that we gave up at last" "I see" "Seichi" "When a boat needs repairing, it's time to change your job" "It's true except to the rich who have a number of boats" "Small boats mark little profit" ""The Big" gets it all" "Nobody markets from house, to money loan for a new rock-carrier today" "Who said a new boat?" "A second-hand one will do." "Still it costs four million." "Where can we get the money?" "To sell the house?" "Why not?" "Sister!" "You don't want me to work here taking care of the old man?" "Who said that?" "We wish you'd take over Father's job" "That'll be great" "But the fact is that you can't" "We don't want to see you go bankrupt" "Tamiko, the work is tough, right?" "What did Kenji say?" "You discussed that with him last time, right?" "Well..." "Well?" "About the job in Onomichi?" "He agreed." "Shut up!" "He's a born loser" "Who'd listen to him?" "But..." "He's worried about you" "You visited him?" "And talked of things like that?" "You said working on a boat is hard, to make me quit, right?" "Did you complain to everyone?" "Stop it!" "You can't say something like that" "That's right, it's too much" "Shut up!" "Remember, this is my business" "I'm to decide what we'll live on" "I'm the Skipper!" "That's right."

"It's never easy" "Really?" "Physical endurance I've got, but..." "I have to think about the children" "I have to leave them every time." "They are so poor" "Well..." "Matsushita!" "Yes?" "If it isn't the skipper!" "What brought you here?" "I heard you're ill" "I had to visit Kure today, so I dropped in" "I, m sorry!" "I'll come down in a moment" "Hello" "What a pool!" "Mr. Matsushita" "Yes?" "I'm sorry" "What for?" "I was upset the other night, so I spoke nonsense" "I've forgotten it" "I caught a cold that night" "Oh..." "I haven't eaten for days" "I couldn't work" "Let's take a walk" "Shall we?" "No problem, no problem" "What have you been eating?" "Only bread" "You should have told me" "I'm your pal" "I couldn't even stand up." "How could I go out?" "Is that so?" "It's good" "Just eating bread is not enough" "Yes" "How's the discussion." "Will you keep your job?" "Well..." "I think I'll quit" "So you've given up being a skipper" "You're going to be a laborer" "It doesn't make much difference" "It does" "A lot." "Why?" "The wages are different" "A skipper gets less" "And labor too" "A skipper works harder" "A skipper is still a skipper" "You work hard from morning till night and you've done nothing wrong" "Why is it like that?" "Why is it that I have to leave this beautiful island where my ancestors once lived?" "We have no other choice." "We can't make a living" "Is that so?" "Will this island turn into a factory some day?" "I don't like it!" "Take care of yourself" "No problem" "Say hi to your wife for me" "Thanks" "Goodbye" "Hum" "I'll visit you someday" "What did the company manager say?" "He wanted me to do the job again tomorrow" "Tomorrow?" "He even praised me for my decision to quit" "That's good!" "So you won't be an engineer any more" "You'll have no regrets?" "Thank you" "Our work here will end tomorrow" "Tomorrow?" "Yes, we'll move to Onomichi next month" "I see." "You are leaving anyway" "Leaving so early?" "Yes" "We have to go and say good-bye to many people today" "The last voyage?" "Yes" "Take care" "Thanks" "Tomiko" "What?" "Maybe the boat knows it's her last job" "The engine's fine, that's rare" "I hope it'll work" "What are you doing, Tamiko?" "Pulling it up" "Thank you Good-bye" "Take care" "Thanks" "Ok, Say hi to your brother" "Ok, thanks" "Goodbye" ""Rising from the inland Sea" "Roving to the south with the glee" "Over the waves of cobalt blue" "The stinging is passing through" "Though the terraced farms are gay" "With the flowers that bloom in May," "I stand alone in the wind and cry, looking up into the sky." "As I've said many times the Bosch fuel pump revolves... counter-clockwise to push up the roller" "Then it pushes up the plunger to give pressure to the oil" "Usually about 300 kilograms" "It helps to increase pressure or combustion" "You there!" "What's the pressure?" "300 kilograms" "Yes!" "Combustion depends on the timing of air suction" "Look at this" "Suction of air brings carburetion" "Look at that." "Suction of air..." "Wake up, Tamiko" "Yes?" "You're wrong." "It's carburetion" "Carburetion..." "Papa, did you take your lunch?" "Yes, it's here" "Pressure..." "Suction, pressure, carburetion" "How's the result?" "You made it?" "So you failed?" "Try next year" "Come on" "Don't cry, Tamiko" "I was only kidding." "I got the license" "I made it!" "Chiaki, I pass the exam!" "You fool!" "Tamiko" "What?" "Don't worry about me when you're in Onomichi" "I'm fine." "I can work in the field" "My daughter lives near here." "Don't worry about me" "Thank you" "I'm glad to hear that."
