On the Doha seashore, rows of wooden dhow boats line a pier, with scores of fish on display -- part of a festival seeking to revive Qatar's long seafaring tradition. Aboard the boats, men in customary sea gear -- a white t-shirt and towel -- reprise the age-old tradition of line-fishing in the energy-rich Gulf emirate for the 11th edition of the "Senyar" festival. "This is basically by generation. We got that from our father. And then, my grandfather and that and so on," says one Emirati competitor who is a member of a Qatari team. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
