For about a millennium dhows have sailed the Indian Ocean and extensively voyaged between Arabia and Zanzibar, helped by the monsoons. Whether the Sultans, explorers, missionaries or traders, they all depended on these vessels for travelling, Even, in 1837, the Sultan sent his own dhow to England in his attempt to appeal against the mounting pressure on him to abolish slave trade.

Sure, time as well as Sultans have come and gone but these beautiful wooden boats are still cruising around.
