The Borobudur Ship Expedition 纪念婆罗浮屠船舶探险

The Borobudur Ship — a 25 meter-long wooden ship modelled

after wall reliefs were found on the 8th century Borobudur

temple in Central Java – set sail on 15 August 2003 from Ancol

pier in Jakarta, catching the Southeast Asian trade winds for a

4000 mile sail to Madagascar, an island situated about 250 miles

off East Africa. The ship was designed by Australian Nick

Burningham – an expert on Indonesian traditional vessels – and

built by Indonesian craftsmen on the island of Pagerungan Kecil,

north of Bali.
