East Expo 2011 exhibition was held in a grand scale in the Trincomalee town from the 23rd to 27th September. During this exhibition Sri Lank Navy conducted a water sport festival which included a performance display of Sri Lanka Navy men and boats in action in the beautiful beach near the Trincomalee Fort.
Following are some photos I took when I went to see their water action display on the evening of 23rd September. This photos show only a small part of this Navy display. I heard from other people who went to see this Navy military action display in Trincomalee beach that there were many more action displays like this throughout the afternoon that day as well as the next few days.
In the photos below I have tried to provide a description of what is taking place.
A Navy boat known as the Fast Attack craft speeds away from the beach as people look at action taking out there in the ocean.
A Navy life boat approaches the beach to pickup Navy men who are waiting on the beach to board it.
This picture shows how our Navy boys get into a life boat. Look at how they line up and run and get into the boat one by one as the sea wave recedes.
You can see part of the crowd that had gathered in the Trincomalee town beach near the Trincomalee Fort to watch our Sri Lankan Navy’s performance in the ocean.
Seven Fast Attack Crafts belonging to the Sri Lanka Navy approach the beach with high speed.
In this photo you see the seven SL Navy Fast Attack Crafts slow down and gather in a close formation near the beach before they race out once again out into the sea which you can see in the next picture below.
