Modeling Traditional Japanese Wooden Boats. Skip to primary content. Kamakura Jidai no Umi-Bune. Glossary of Japanese Boat Terms. Note that these kits all feature instructions in Japanese and are not available directly in the U.S. Instructions are all very well illustrated and many of the kits can be purchased on Amazon.com or Ebay, but be careful of premium pricing by some vendors.
