Bangkas, a traditional type of outrigger boats used by Filipino artisanal fishermen #111173029
Description
Bankas or bangkas are traditional outrigger wooden boats used by Filipino fishermen to catch a variety of fish, including tuna. As opposed to industrial fisheries, artisanal fisheries are labour-intensive. A ton of fish caught by artisanal fisheries provides income to a much larger number of fishermen than a ton of fish caught by industrial fisheries.
