BOROTONG canoe
Posted: Mon Jul 23, 2012 8:54 pm
The BOROTONG is an outrigger canoe used in the Palau Islands, she is the same design as a KAEB and used to carry cargo.
The hull is somewhat longer, and the platform on the booms to the float are larger as on the KAEP but otherwise has she the same design as the KAEP.
Can be paddled, when sailed sets a triangular sail with its apex tacked to the forward end.
Length ca. 8 metre, beam 0.5m.
