Abstract
A sea fishing raft is a kind of sea floating structure. It is especially difficult for anglers themselves to escape from a sea fishing raft to land under tsunami attack. Owners of sea fishing rafts must have the ability to keep anglers safe. Through an evacuation drill at Minamiise Town, Mie, Japan, we discuss how to smoothly evacuate anglers from the sea fishing raft to the tsunami shelter. Three fishing boats came to the sea fishing raft from their home port, and picked up the participants who acted as anglers. After the participants made a landing, they ran to the tsunami shelter.
In an analysis of the GPS loggers and the comments of the participants, many participants could not recognize their best evacuation route. In addition, they have the risk of reaching a tsunami before their landing at the port. We point out the significance of considering the integral evacuation route with a best landing point, an evacuation road and a tsunami shelter.
