Sarimanok (vinta)

Sarimanok is a vinta that was sailed in 1985 from Bali to Madagascar across the Indian Ocean to replicate ancient seafaring techniques.[1][2][3] The ship is now at the Oceanographic Museum of Nosy Be.[1]

This article is about the historic vinta boat that crossed the Indian Ocean. For the bird in Philippine mythology, see Sarimanok.

Two books have been written about the journey:[1]

  • Sarimanok by Bob Hobman, Grasset, 1989.
  • Sarimanok by Albrecht Schaefer, Goldmann, 2000.

A movie was also made:

gollark: I mean, sure, but you would have to go to significant effort.
gollark: People still tried SQL injection on my discord bot because of course.
gollark: Modern programming environments and stuff make it quite hard to *accidentally* introduce that kind of bug. Although people still manage.
gollark: I am assuming it's not designed stupidly enough that<?php echo "PWNED"; ?> you can do that to it.
gollark: No, I mean "code injection" to what, exactly?
