Then my taxi to the airport cost about 12,500 yen (I'll never wake up late again)

So all in all I could have survived quite well on just roughly £250 with the things I was doing (Assuming i took cheaper transport to Tokyo and didn't have to get a taxi to the airport), but I didn't really travel as much as you plan to, and like you said, you want to take the ferry etc.

As for phones, I have been looking into rental phones for my next trip because it was so difficult to stay in good contact with friends while I was over there without a phone.

One site which I found which I heard good things about was https://www.rentafonejapan.com/index.html
But I haven't used them and won't try to use them until my next trip.

If you say you won't really need a phone though you should be ok.
The only reason I should have got one was to arrange things with friends.
Thanks for the link! I'll most likely go through them if we decide to get phones. Isn't the Nagoya - Tokyo trip covered by the JR pass?
