EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the tranquil waters off the coast of Sri Lanka in the 1990s, these traditional outrigger fishing boats, also known as perahu, prau, proa, waka, or multihull vessels, gracefully sail against the backdrop of a clear blue sky. The boats, with their distinctive curved sails and single outrigger, are a common sight in the coastal regions of Sri Lanka, where they have been used for centuries for fishing and transportation. In this image, the boats are seen tacking, or changing direction, with their sails close-hauled, allowing the wind to fill the sails from the side. The ama, or stabilizing outrigger, provides balance and stability to the boat, enabling the fishermen to navigate the often rough waters with ease. The boats are an integral part of the maritime culture of Sri Lanka and have been passed down through generations. The fishermen, who are often seen working in pairs, rely on their boats to provide for their families, making their livelihoods through fishing. The boats are not only a means of transportation and livelihood but also a symbol of the rich maritime heritage of Sri Lanka. The image captures the essence of the simple yet hardworking lives of the fishermen and the harmony between man and nature. The boats, with their sails billowing in the wind, evoke a sense of freedom and adventure, making for a captivating and timeless photograph.
