Negombo - black sails in the sunset.

ah... reminded me of an elvis costello song
these canvas-sailed catamarans cutting thru the Indian Ocean, probably in much the same way Marco Polo would have seen in the 14th century...

"Black sails in the sunset

All the money in the world will never bring your body back
Is it some mysterious dance nobody can do?
Thought I knew all the steps quite clearly
I don't have a clue."
