Golekan is a type of traditional boat from Madura, Indonesia. They once plied as far as Singapore, where they are referred to as Madurese traders. In the present this type of boat is only known locally, especially near Bangkalan in Western Madura and around the Kangean islands.Horridge (2015). p. 79. Etymology Dutch observer van Deventer wrote that it means "freight seeker". Gibson-Hill stated the name comes from Malay word ''golek'', which he claimed meant crank (tender, or 'tippy') when applied to a canoe. Rather, the name derived from ''kolek'', a Javanese word for 'boat', applied to a wide range of small craft along the north coast of Java. Thus the name ''golekan'' would meant 'a kind of ''kolek'''.Stenross (2007). p. 275. Golekan in Madurese culture were regarded as "male", being referred to as ''parao laki'' (male boat), so it has different ornamental motif from lis-alis and janggolan (''parao bini'' — female boat). The primary symbol was the rooster, associated in Indon ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Butonese lambo Lambo is the Indonesian version of small western styled merchant boats with one mast from the end of the 19th century. It is directly developed as merchant boats, and unlike other boats from Indonesia, it was not derived from local fishing ''perahu'' or canoe.Horridge (2015). p. 125.

A sailboat or sailing boat is a boat propelled partly or entirely by sails and is smaller than a sailing ship. Distinctions in what constitutes a sailing boat and ship vary by region and maritime culture. Types Although sailboat terminology has varied across history, many terms have specific meanings in the context of modern yachting. A great number of sailboat-types may be distinguished by size, hull configuration, keel type, purpose, number and configuration of masts, and sail plan. Popular monohull designs include: Cutter The cutter is similar to a sloop with a single mast and mainsail, but generally carries the mast further aft to allow for a jib and staysail to be attached to the head stay and inner forestay, respectively. Once a common racing configuration, today it gives versatility to cruising boats, especially in allowing a small staysail to be flown from the inner stay in high winds. Catboat A catboat has a single mast mounted far forward and does not ca ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
