CRUISING THE NILE IN A FELUCCA
When you cruise the Nile in a felucca, you better have an engine
or at least oars. The winds are both light and fluky, while
the current relentlessly heads north.
Feluccas have been around for thousands of years, and their design
allows them to transport heavy cargo. They don't have much
freeboard because the waves are small in the Nile.
Feluccas aren't racing boats, but they carry a lot of sail, and
when the wind pipes up, they really take off. On a good day
you can sail like a banshee, and on a bad day you will drift down
steam in the sun.
Feluccas have a barn door rudder that's big enough to be
your kitchen table. I'm not sure why it's so large.
Maybe the rudder needs a large surface area to impart directional
stability and control a heavily laden Felucca in the sometimes
fast flowing Nile.
Sailing in a Felucca is unique. You're actually sailing back
in time. As you look to port and starboard, you survey Pharaoh's
domain. The rich Nile flood plain contrasts sharply with the
stark escarpments in the distance. The Valley of the Kings
and Queens beckon, and you are actually there.
