In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the legacy of the dhow builders of the Trucial Coast in the 1970s, a time when oil wealth was transforming the region but traditional shipwrights were still crafting vessels by hand along Dubai Creek and in Sharjah, Ajman, and Ras Al Khaimah. They focus on the story of a master builder, Mohammed bin Nasser al-Jabri, who oversaw the construction of the last commercial cargo dhow launched from Al Shindagha in 1978. The conversation covers the intricate techniques of stitching planks with coconut fiber rope, the use of teak from India and mangrove poles from East Africa, and the transition from pearling to trading. They also touch on the 1976 UNESCO survey that documented surviving shipwrights and the subsequent efforts to preserve the skill. The episode ends with a reflection on how these boats represent a living connection to the pre-oil era. #DhowBuilders #TrucialCoast #MohammedBinNasserAlJabri #DubaiCreek #AlShindagha #CoconutFibreRope #TeakTrade #MangrovePoles #EastAfricaTrade #IndiaTrade #1970s #UNESCO #Pearling #MaritimeHeritage #Shipwrights #TraditionalCrafts #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
