SL trade revives as foul weather norm eased
The New Indian Express Tirunelveli
|May 22, 2025
THE Directorate General of Shipping, in a circular dated May 19, relaxed foul weather norms for the operation of Mechanised Sailing Vessels (MSV), or thonies, between Thoothukudi and Sri Lanka, which would allow trade operations throughout the year.
Operators say this has come as a shot in the arm for maritime trade between the two countries. Hitherto, the Mercantile Marine Department (MMD) allowed MSVs to set sail only between September and April, which is considered fair weather period. The period from May to August is considered foul weather period and MSVs remain moored in harbour.
Mechanised sailing vessel operators hope the development will help them reclaim trade with Sri Lanka, which they lost in 2008 due to multiple factors including the war between LTTE and Lankan military, and severe competition from other operators.
