The Aceh Tsunami disaster on 26 December 2004 brought the 20-ton vessel suspended above the people's house in the village of Lampulo, precisely above the Misbah and Abassiah's house. The ship with a length of 25 meters and 5.5 meters wide is made of wood. The underside of the ship is painted black, while the ship's body appears to have been repainted with a silver-colored oil paint. Some parts of the ship's walls look obsolete with age. For the visitors the existence of this ship will of course be reminiscent of the power of the Creator.

To make it easier for visitors to see the top of the ship, built flat stairs as high as five meters. The whole building is gray. From up here we can freely see the inside of the ship and also the houses of the people around him.

Below we will find a plaque in three languages; Aceh, Indonesia and the UK. The plaque was designed by the Bustanussalatin team and the Aceh-Nias Recovery Fund of the BRR Trust Fund. On top of the plaque there is the inscription "The ship was slammed by the tsunami on December 26, 2004 until it stuck in this house. This ship became an important proof of how devastating the tsunami was. Thanks to this ship 59 people were saved on the incident ".
