PHUKET: The elegant three-masted tall ship INS Sudashini added a touch of 19th-century glamour to the Phuket Deep Sea Port at Ao Makham when it arrived this week on a courtesy call.

 

Three other Indian Navy ships, the INS Tir, INS Sujata and ICGS Varuna, arrived alongside the INS Sudashini at the Phuket Deep Sea Port last Thursday (Oct 27).

 

The Indian Navy ships will be open for people to visit this Sunday morning (Oct 3) between 9am and 11.30am.

 

After the Indian Navy squadron arrived on Thursday, Mr Abba Gani Ramu, Deputy Chief of Mission for the Embassy of India, Bangkok, led officials in signing a memorial book to pay their respect to His Majesty the late King Bhumibol Adulajev.

After spending 6 day T/R to Andaman islands I know ships from India can be a bit on the old side 

But protecting India's cost with this beautiful old ship is a bit to much

 

I think I will go to see her as well

Beautiful sailing ships. Wish I was there to see them!

That was really nice. The one tall ship, one coast guard ship and 2 training vessels to be seen. Very friendly people all around, willing to explain and answer questions. Drinking water, orange juice, tea and snacks available everywhere.

Was really a nice few hours.

Fully agree and nice weather as well.

Never been to that port before.

Just a bit disappointed with the size of the Sail ship.

Probably only as it was larger in my mind.

Can't really blame anyone for that

I never made it there, too busy with my customers .... oh well

The tuk-tuk drivers will be rubbing their grubby little paws with glee.

Both are Deep Sea Port, that is about the only connection between your post and this thread.

It was meant as an example of what tuk-tuk drivers are likely to do with the prospect of a large number of visitors wanting to go tour the Indian ship.
