Tattered sails don't worry me

The sails may be tattered, but they do just fine! They will get me and my passengers from the coast to the Murud Janjira (Jazeera) fort and back just fine!
Snap info - Taken on the sailboat from the coastal village of Rajpuri village to the island fort of Murud Janjira (really Jazeera is the right word!). The fort itself is just about visible behind the boatman. This guy was one of the men "guiding" the boat. He was in charge of the steering upfront. Born and brought up at Rajpuri, he supposedly has been doing this work since childhood!!
The fort of Murud Janjira was never conquered in its history - all of 900 glorious years! Not by the Mughals, not the Marathas and not even the mighty English! That's something isn't it?! Intrigued? Read more here.
A snap of the fort itself is here.
The break from Austria continues! More coming from Austria soon!
