The treasure ship with the Shichi Fukujin on board. It is believed to sail into port on New Year's Eve. The treasures the ship carries are the Inexhaustible Purse, the Invisible-Making Hat, the Lucky Coat, the Wealth Mallet, the Ghost-Chasing Rat, the Full Bag of Rice, and the Magic Key. Pictures of this ship are laid under children's pillows, so that they may have happy dreams.
