1985 Dyer Dhow Sailing and Rowing Dink For Sale $1,200 Enjoy the classic Dyer Dhow rowing and sailing dinghy that has attracted a devoted following. The proven "hard chine" or flat bottom Dhow design lets you carry four people and more gear with greater stability than comparable round bottom dinghies. And unlike inflatables, you can tow and row the Dhow with ease. And of course, the sailing model is the perfect junior trainer. The boat includes: Sail rig (mast, boom, rudder and centerboard – NO Main sail, Centerboard stuck in trunk, handle broken) Oars and oar locks Maximum weight 450 lbs. About Dyer Dhow The Dyer Dhow is a good-looking and versatile tender that’s easily rowed and lovely under sail….The Dhow features three seats and has a centerboard that can be lowered when sailing. The two-piece spruce mast takes just minutes to put together and step, and it’s held in place by three stays. At 106 pounds, the Dhow is a little heavy to lift on deck, though it’s certainly doable with a halyard and winch. For coastal cruising, it’s a boat that will most likely be towed if davits aren’t available. Ashore, the dinghy’s easily moved around on a dolly. In sailing mode, the boat is perfect for one adult, though two would still find it comfortable. As a tender, it can carry four, or up to 650 pounds. Kids? Pile them in and they’ll have a ball.

Pre-Modern Sri Lankan Ships and Shipping

ISBN 0-7007-1235-6 (Papers read at the second conference in the series The Indian Ocean: Transregional creation of societies and cultures organized by the Institute of Social and Cultural Anthropology, University of Oxford, and held at St.Anthony’s College, in May 1998) Chapter 5 PRE - MODERN SRI LANKAN SHIPS Somasiri Devendra Introduction There are many references to Sri Lankan ships in the historical records of Sri Lanka, as well as other countries. Yet, we have little idea of the appearance or structural characteristics of the early vessels. This paper, which tries to find an answer to these questions, is presented in two parts. Part 1 states the hypothesis and the path followed to test it. Part 2 describes the traditional ships that survived into this century. The inland watercraft, which are important 2 for a fuller appreciation of this subject, is not dealt with here as I have dealt with them at length elsewhere. (Devendra 1995: 211-238) PART I Hypothesis All Sri Lankan ships and watercraft developed from two basic forms that evolved out of the interaction between the inshore maritime environment and the biological resources of the island. Shared cultural links with, and technological forms prevalent in, south India were the other parameters. When Sri Lankan vessels eventually ventured farther out into the ocean, these basic forms underwent further and greater modification to fit the new environment. Contacts with foreign ships calling at Sri Lanka and experiences gained by sailing in foreign waters, exposed Sri Lankan mariners to types of craft and technologies that had originated in different parts of the Indian Ocean (and beyond).

So Old a Ship:Twilight of the Arab Dhow by Marion Kaplan
So Old a Ship:Twilight of the Arab Dhow by Marion Kaplan iving and working in Kenya as a free- lance photojournalist in the 1970s, it was my good fortune to be assigned Lby National Geographic to do a story on Arab dhows. These wooden ships had with- stood change in the Indian Ocean for more than 2,000 years, but their numbers were then in rapid decline. In the early years of the 20th century, between 600 and 700 wooden dhows with their great billowing sails would arrive each year in Mombasa, Kenya, with the monsoon from Muscat and Oman, Arabia and India. In the 1930s and ’40s, their number exceeded 200, but by 1970 the dhows were being pushed off their ancient trading routes by speedy freighters and containerization. The year I embarked on my expedition, the number making the seasonal voyage had diminished to fewer than fifty. I spent five months on the venture. In Kuwait, I joined the crew of a small dhow as a passenger for a trip through the Persian Gulf; in Dubai, I transferred to a large seagoing dhow called a “boom” for a voy- age down the African coast, ultimately bound for Mombasa. My 3,500-mile jour- ney was very probably the last close look at dhow people, dhow trading, and dhow life before those lovely wooden vessels were gone forever. marion kaplan by all photos of big American cars.

Persian Gulf Sailing
Persian Gulf Sailing Ali Parsa In 1998 a shipwreck was found near the Indonesian island of Belitung. The cargo was almost 60,000pieces of Imperial quality Chinese ceramics, some fine porcelain pieces and silver and gold artifacts. Some of the pieces had dates on them which established the date of the cargo to be 826 AD, almost 1,200 years ago. The ship was a hand-made wooden craft, better known these days as a dhow. This magnificent find shows there was maritime trade between China and the Middle East at least 1,200 years ago, and also it shows that Persian Gulf sailors sailed very long expanses of the oceans much earlier than previously thought. Even today you can see these hand-made wooden vessels used in the waters of the Persian Gulf, the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean, albeit without sails and using diesel engines. What is a dhow? Dhow is the English name for many kinds of traditional Middle Eastern, African and Indian wooden ships and boats. The term is not used in those areas by the native people. In the Persian Gulf the term Jahazat (which is Arabic for ‘vessels’) is used instead of dhows. There are unique names for many kinds of dhows, depending onthe hull shape and also on the locality. Some of these names are: Baghlah, Mashwah, Shouii, Badan, Kouti, Battil, Boum, Sanbouk, Parakeh, Fellukeh, Ghoncheh. Many of these names are specific to locations and some are no longer in use, as the hull itself is no longer built. Of these, the boumhas been considered by local sailors to be the best ocean-going vessel through the centuries.

Ceylon 1095 1852 - Becoming morally untenable 1159 1853 - On the way out 1179 PART II - JOURNEY TO ROME AND PARIS 1209 Guide to Chapters and Sections 1439 FOREWORD Souvenirs 1 and 2 are based on Marion Bresillac's journal or his personal diary, but they include many longish reflections and letters added in 1855 when he was preparing his Indian memoirs for publication. (They also exclude some remarks which he considered too rough to print, or maybe unfair). The editing and amplifying job stopped suddenly when he had got to the last entry for 1848... Africa beckoned. And the next thing we hear, he is busy founding a new society (S.M.A.) and preparing to go to Dahomey. (The blue Diary 1856-1859 covers that period). Obviously, he had not much time to work on his journal after that. So what we have here in Souvenirs 3 is his "raw" Missionary Journal (1849-1854) without subtraction or addition.

1 Sultan Dhow Front Page.Qxd
he dhow is a type of boat with two or three masts and rigged with lateen sails. For centuries, Tthese boats have plied their trade in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea and further afield in Malaysia and Zanzibar. Until the 1960s, dhows regularly sailed between the Persian Gulf and East Africa with cargos of spices and timber. Today, dhows continue trading and are still hand-built in Zanzibar. TECHNICAL DATA: The Sultan Dhow Model no: 22165 Degree of difficulty: Length: 470mm (1816/32in) Height: 420mm (16 18/32in) Beam: 125mm (4 3/4in) Scale: 1:60 Not suitable for children under 14 years of age. Model for collectors only. DHOWS 1 THE SULTAN DHOW Dhows have been plying the seas for two millennia or more. Their size, shape and construction methods have varied through the centuries and between various countries. The basic principle of a wooden sailboat with lateen sails – a shape developed by the Arabs – is still used today in the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf, and in the Indian Ocean, from the north of Madagascar to the Bay of Bengal. ost dhows sail mainly in make excellent fishing boats, and are Similar boats can be found on these coastal waters, but larger used as bases for pearl divers. routes today, although they are Mversions are capable of long, usually fitted with auxiliary engines. deep-sea voyages, during which Sailing on the monsoon winds A typical dhow has two masts, sailors once navigated with the kamal, Until the mid-20th century, dhows with a mainsail considerably bigger a simple instrument for determining would sail south on the monsoon than the mizzensail, and a long, thin latitude with a surprising degree of winds of late winter from Kuwait, wooden hull with a sharp, upward- accuracy.

The Roots of European Sailing Arab Dhow Viking Longship •Lateen rigged; one of the earliest fore-and-aft •Square rigged; arguably the oldest sail type. rigs. •Poor at sailing upwind. •Good at sailing upwind. •Good at sailing downwind. •Poor at sailing downwind. Square Sails • So called because, when at rest, the sail sits across the vessel. • One type of sail; many, many configurations. • Generally unsuitable for small boats. • Best for Downwind sailing. Square Rig •An ancient rig type, very rare for private yachts. •Excels downwind over long distances. •Trapezoidal sails held onto Spars called Yards. •Immensely complex rigging. •Requires large amounts of crew to operate Fore-and-aft Sails • So called because when at rest, the sail sits along the length of the boat, fore-and-aft. • Comes in many varieties, of which the most popular nowadays are Bermudan, Gaff and Lug. • Good for small boats due to relative simplicity of rigging, ease of working and superior manoeuvrability.

Numerical and Experimental Studies of Sail Aerodynamics
Departamento de Arquitectura y ConstrucciónNavales Escuela TécnicaSuperior de Ingenieros Navales Universidad Politécnicade Madrid PhD Thesis Numerical and Experimental Studies of Sail Aerodynamics By Ms. Patricia Izaguirre Alza M.Sc. in Naval Architecture Supervisor: Prof. Luis PérezRojas Ph.D. in Naval Architecture Professor in Ship Theory 2012 ii Abstract The purpose of this investigation was the determination of the aerodynamic performance of sails and gain knowledge of the phenomena involved in order to improve the aerody- namic characteristics. In this research, the airflow around different sails in four scenarios was studied. The method to analyze these scenarios was the combination of numerical simulations and experimental tests by taking advantage of the best of each tool. Two different Com- putational Fluid Dynamic codes were utilized: the ANSYS-CFX and the CD-Adapco's STAR-CCM+. The experimental tests were conducted in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel at the Universidad de Granada (Spain), the Twisted Flow Wind Tunnel at the University of Auckland (New Zealand) and the A9 Wind Tunnel at the Universidad Politécnicade Madrid (Spain). Through this research, it was found the three-dimensional effect of the mast on the aerodynamic performance of an IMS Class boat. The pressure distribution on a Transpac 52 Class mainsail was also determined. Moreover, the aerodynamic perfor- mance of the 43ft and 60ft Dhow Classes was obtained. Finally, a feasibility study was conducted to use a structural wing in combination with conventional propulsions systems. The main conclusion was that this research clarified gaps on the knowledge of the aerodynamic performance of sails.

Assessment of the Complementarity of the Dhow Network with Container Shipping Lines at Djibouti
Assessment of the complementarity of the dhow network with container shipping lines at Djibouti Emeric LENDJEL Centre d’Economie de la Sorbonne, Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne [email protected] Achaa ABDILLAHI AHMED Université de Djibouti [email protected] Abstract The persistence of dhow shipping around the Arabian Peninsula is puzzling for the maritime economist. Indeed, nowadays, almost every commodity can be carried easily and cheaply through the global network of container shipping lines, directly or through a hub (Song & Panayides, 2015). Given the difference of capacity between a dhow (however big, like a “500- tons baghlah”; Martin, 1980) and a containership (even a small 1200 TEU feeder one), how can small dhows survive in such a competitive environment? Yet, dhow shipping is still active in the region, not only for local trades but also for long range trade such as between East Africa ports to Indian or Sri Lanka ports. Two explanations are at least possible. Dhows and container ships may be either complementary for the same commodities, or dually fitted for different kind of commodities. Testing this complementarity is a tricky matter when very few data are available. The data provided by Djibouti port Authority is a way to do it from one of the major container port of East-Africa. Based on port data on dhows stopovers at Djibouti during the 2014-2018 period, the purpose of this article is to test the complementarity/duality of the means of transport, the kind of commodities carried, the ships’ routing patterns, and the level of inclusion of dhow wharfage in the city.
