Details

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Uru, or "Big Boat", is made in Beypore, a village in south Calicut, Kerala, in southwestern India. A couple of boat-building yards can be found near the Beypore port. These have been used by the Arabs since ancient times as trading vessels, and even now, urus are being manufactured and exported to Arab nations from Beypore. It is built of several types of wood, the main one being teak. The teak was taken from Nilambur forests in earlier times, but now imported Malaysian teak is used. A remarkable feature of the technology of Uru making is that, there is no documents, technical data sheets or drawings right from the beginning till end of the manufacturing. The construction details are assigned on a day to day basis to the assistants and carpenters by the master carpenter. No electrical tools or heavy machines are used. The basic tools are the indigenous carpentry tools. all heavy lifting is done using elaborate pulley systems.
