Answer:

We wanted to visit this historical fort on our way back from Diveagar beach to Pune. We went to Dighi Port and parked our vehicle there to take a boat ride to visit the fort. The charges were 30rs. per passenger for a return ride. When we went there we found no queue but bunch of people waiting there for the boat to arrive. We were thinking that there will be some queue system to board the boat. But when the boat arrived after 5 minutes, there was a mad scramble to board the boat. To our utter shock males, elderly women and children all seemed to just jump in grabbing whatever place they could get to sit in. When the boat was full the boatman asked us either to stand or asked us to go to the roof of the boat where no support system was there. The boat just had one orange coloured floating ring and no other life saving safety measures. Nobody was provided with life jackets. This was for a 20 minutes ride in a natural port on Arabian sea.

To our shock when we were about to reach the fort the boat stopped and we were asked to jump into another small ferry to reach the fort. Even here the mad scramble to jump into the ferry was taking place. We could not believe that even elderly were jumping from this boat to the small ferry in middle of the sea, with no safety measures at all!!! When we asked will there be another boat as the ferry was full, the boat man replied - no everyone had to board the small ferry only and it had almost double the capacity it can hold. we decided not to visit the fort and came back to the port. The boat service is not by the government. Nobody seems to monitor them and no safety measures at all. Don't know how it will be in peak holiday season. This was the scene when we visited on a week day!! Actually it s disaster waiting to happen
