Before modern harbors, the people of Fuvahmulah launched and hauled their boats through a vibrant, communal process deeply rooted in tradition. This practice, essential for seasonal voyages to Malé and Olhudhu, brought the entire island together in a grand social event filled with teamwork, rituals, and celebrations. From meticulous boat preparation to religious chants and synchronized efforts, this tradition not only ensured safe voyages but also strengthened social bonds, showcasing the unity and resilience of the Fuvahmulah community.
