Arab Dhow

Post by john sefton » Fri Dec 07, 2012 12:38 pm

An Arab Dhow has a great lanteen sail which dwarfs and dominates her tiny hull.
These ancient crafts are still sailed in the Mediterranean.
The dhow pictured on the Micronesia stamp plies the waters off the island of Djerba.
Micronesia SG?
