Hi All

We went to see two local boat building facilities….Randal found it to be interesting.  I was more interested in the street life.

Traditional Boat Building Tour at Paulau Duyong

“The traditional boat builders of Terengganu are famous for their skills that have withstood the test of time. These craftsmen do not require plans or blueprints. They build boats from memory passed from generations and yet produce intricate designs with great precision and details. Built with the touch of modern technology and traditional precision, the boat is sought after by sailors from all over the world due to its sea-worthiness. “from the Terengganu travel guide. www.tourism.terrengganu.gov.my

I really can’t tell you much about the boats or the building process. I spent more time talking to the other cruisers or taking photos of the flowers in front of the workers’ homes.

Reminds me of the guys who built our boat!

Boats under construction

Most of the cruisers have sailboat and were interested in this one being built.

Computer screens, classroom area, and technology.

Walking from one boat building workshop to another I saw this scene, a mix or old and new from the cycle on the left to the bicycle on the right and the clothing of the men in the middle.

A young boy and his sister posed for a photo.

I liked all of the colors here.
