I lived for many years in Tanzania where sailing dhows still carry cargo up and down the coast. They sail amazingly well although tricky to handle and tack. This old film shows how it was done back in the 1920's. As always...enjoy and share. | Historic Vessel Vega

I enjoyed this little film about sailing dhows. The dhow is a very efficient rig that could sail rings around most European boats of the day. Would be interested in your thoughts on the rig. | Historic Vessel Vega
