Leaving on a jetfoil to Yakushima

Jetfoil from Kagoshima to Yakushima These suckers fly!

Hopped on a jetfoil named Toppy to get from Kagoshima to Yakushima Island, which is supposed to be a somewhat of an undiscovered tropical adventure island. I am planning on spending a couple days in a hostel and getting the lay of the land before taking an overnight trek to a mountain hut on the top of the volcano. The island is registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site to protect its unique flora and ancient Japanese cedars.
