My traditional sailboat (felucca) in the manner used by the pharaoh. For centuries it has a triangular sail. The boat, which is covered with a comfortable wooden mattress, has a bathroom and a kitchen. My felucca (Sandalia) has a length of 11 m, a width of 3.5 m, a height of 10 m, and a mast of 21 m. The felucca consists of four parts, the first part being a place for the sailor, the second part being the galley opposite the bathroom, the third post for the customers, and the last post for the helm, the boat covered with wood and the comfortable mattress.
I was born on Elephantine Island, my family was famous as a sailor family. I inherited the profession of sailing boats from my ancestors, as they were engaged in transporting goods that pass through the Nubian villages along the Nile River, from Aswan to Wadi Halfa in Sudan. My traditional sailing boat (felucca) is the method used by the pharaohs for centuries with a triangular sail. The boat covered in wood and comfortable mattresses also has a bathroom and a kitchen....
