Although R/V Shigen is not famous in Japan, the name is highlighted again since she was born in 2007. Too bad. Please be famous as your research results, Ms. Shigen!
I heard from a researcher who analyse the 3D seismic data obtained by R/V shigen that he have never get a permission for visiting the vessel.
Why? I cannot understand.
I recommend to make a event of open ship with R/V Shigen. Many people will understand her activity there.
Finally, I introduce websites with photos of R/V Shigen.
Have fun!

Congratulations on the resuming of your English blog. I'm looking forward to reading your posts.
Cheers.
Thank you very much for your comment. I was surprised because this entry is the top website if you search on Google with "R/V Shigen". There have been no websites related to R/V Shigen!
I'm encouraged to introduce my Japanese blog on Blogger.
