Line and on 18 September 1937, the IJN requisitioned it as an aircraft transport ship and it was refitted in 1939 as a seaplane tender. The ship subsequently saw service in the Second Sino-Japanese War and the Pacific Campaign of World War II. Kamikawa Maru was torpedoed and sunk by the submarine USS Scamp on May 29, 1943.
