Kashi Cruiser” is a poetic invocation of ancient seafaring wisdom—a tribute to the mariners of the Malabar coast who once harnessed the power of the nine cardinal winds (nava vāyu). This model ship, with its tri-mast rigging, dragonhead prow, and tiered wooden cabins, captures the spirit of a time when ships were not mere vessels—but sacred instruments of destiny and direction. Embellished with golden rivets and resting on a stately pedestal, Kashi Cruiser reflects the disciplined craftsmanship and spiritual reverence once bestowed upon every voyage.
