I also thought how to Photoshop it, artificially enlarging it, but did not arrive at any conclusion yet.

I don't know about boats you asking, some were simple, others with modern motors, I did not go further into village as beach behind these children was sadly turned into public toilet.

The original Puri boat has the same shape then those but are made of three pieces of wood (trunks shaped) that are assembled with ropes before fishing and disassembled after to let the wood dry on the beach.
For a casual observer they appears as floating logs that were stranded on the beach :-)

Bubaneshwar and it's "chariot" temple is quite a sight :-)

I'll have to scan those slides one day, if I can find them...!!!
