Hello and ??????to all Outrigger Paddlers here in Japan! I am from Vancouver, BC CANADA and live in Kochi Prefecture on the Island of Shikoku. ?????????????????????????????????????
How would you like to come to Kochi to Paddle together?????????????????We can paddle on the Niyodo or Shimanto River OR out on the Open Ocean!
One small minor detail, I have all my paddling gear, but no OC-1. OC-1????????If you happen to have an extra used OC-1 you are willing to bring, please contact me anytime and we can go paddling together. You are welcome to stay with me in my house for the weekend. My place is small, but we will be out all day paddling anyway. Please don`t hesitate, you are welcome to come anytime!??????????David.

dunno if you've already looked into this but
http://oceanaloha.com
and
http://hoena.net
are good resources if your starting paddling in Japan.
I don't think there are too many people paddling in shikoku though...
also if you contact kenny kaneko (he's the Kamanu rep) from that club he can get you pueos.
good luck.
