EDITORS COMMENTS
Sailing into the Golden Hour: A Timeless Tableau of Sri Lankan Outrigger Boats (1994) Amidst the tranquil waters off the coast of Sri Lanka, a tableau of ancient maritime tradition unfolds as outrigger boats, or locally known as perahu, prau, proa, waka, or multihull vessels, set sail against the backdrop of a setting sun. Dating back to pre-colonial times, these boats have been a vital part of Sri Lanka's maritime heritage, serving as the primary means of transportation and fishing for coastal communities. In this evocative image from the 1990s, the boats are silhouetted by the back light, their sails billowing in the wind as they tack close to the water. The crew, dressed in traditional attire, work in unison to navigate the catamaran-like crafts, their concentration unwavering as they harness the power of the wind and sea. The boats' distinctive hulls, featuring a main hull and one or more outrigger floats, are designed to provide stability and maneuverability in the often tumultuous waters of the Indian Ocean. The larger ama, or outrigger float, provides balance and counteracts the capsize tendency of the main hull, allowing the boats to sail efficiently and effectively in various sea conditions. As the sun begins to set, casting a warm, golden glow over the scene, the boats continue their work, their sails a vibrant contrast against the deepening blue of the sea. This timeless tableau serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring connection between the people of Sri Lanka and their maritime heritage, a connection that has withstood the test of time and continues to thrive in the present day.
