[Everyone is safe] About 30 members of a university soccer team were temporarily swept away while kayaking on Lake Biwa...A man who witnessed the incident called 110, saying, “It’s dangerous, even though the sun is setting.”
9/9 (Mon) 21:59 Yomiuri Shimbun Online Around 6:15 pm on the 9th, a man who witnessed a group of about 20 people kayaking on Lake Biwa in Otsu City called 110 and reported that “it was already sunset and it was dangerous.” According to a statement from the Otsu Kita Police Station of the Shiga Prefectural Police, about 30 of a group of about 50 members, including soccer club members from Biwako Seikei Sport College (Otsu City), who were on a kayaking training session near Kitakomatsu in the city, were temporarily swept away. Some kayaks were reportedly blown over by strong winds and capsized. Just before 8 p.m., all the crew members had managed to reach the lakeshore by swimming or other means and were confirmed to be safe. According to university officials, the group left a boathouse near the university at around 2:00 p.m. on the 9th, heading for Shirahige Shrine in Takashima City, Hyogo Prefecture. He was apparently swept away on his way back.

A disaster is when one encounters a disaster (danger) that is life-threatening. It refers to encountering danger that could result in loss of life, especially in the mountains or at sea.
Because it is dark and dangerous at night, we are requesting Shiga Prefecture to build lighting facilities to illuminate Lake Biwa. Because it is culture.
When I measured it on the map, it was about 7 or 8km one way, and about 15km round trip. Assuming the kayak speed is 4km, it would take 2 hours one way at the fastest. In reality, it would take longer because it meanders along due to the influence of wind and currents. Even with a margin, it would take 6 hours round trip, so it would be dangerous if we didn’t leave by 10am.
