DHOW ZANZIBAR AFRICA
Dhow
is the generic name of a number of traditional sailing vessels with one or more masts with lateen sails
used in the Red Sea and Indian Ocean region. Historians are divided as to whether the dhow was invented
by Arabs or Indians.
Typically sporting long thin hulls, dhows are trading vessels primarily used to carry
heavy items, like fruit, fresh water or merchandise, along the coasts of Eastern Arabia (Arab states of the
Persian Gulf),
East Africa, Yemen and coastal South Asia (Pakistan, India, Bangladesh). Larger dhows have
crews of approximately thirty, smaller ones typically around twelve.
