Vinta
The vinta is a traditional outrigger boat from the Philippine island of Mindanao. The boats are
made by Sama-Bajau and Tausug peoples living in the Sulu Archipelago, Zamboanga peninsula,
and southern Mindanao. Vinta are characterized by their colorful rectangular lug sails (bukay)
and bifurcated prows and sterns, which resemble the gaping mouth of a crocodile. Vinta are used
as fishing vessels, cargo ships, and houseboats. Smaller undecorated versions of the vinta used
for fishing are known as tondaan.
