Antique Sri Lankan Oruwa Outrigger Canoe

• Antique Sri Lankan Oruwa Outrigger Canoe
• The oruwa has been around in Sri Lanka for thousands of years.
• It plays an important role in the lives of those who live near the sea or rivers etc.
• These sailing vessels have many purposes, such as being used for fishing, to cross rivers and lakes, and to transport cargo.
• Oruwa are made of dugout wood such as jak, breadfruit, wild mango and teak trees.
• The different parts are held together with choir rope in a criss cross pattern, this process is called "stitching".
• The two booms connecting the hull to the float, are made from a single log, which creates a support platform for fishing gear and crew.
• We reclaimed this from a private property in Little Aston who had it imported over.
• This measures: 188" Long x 19" Wide x 32 ½" Tall (Max).
• The oruwa boat and support gives it a max width of 92".
• The boat is in one piece and the supports come into three pieces.
