Rowing the Round Fishing Boat

The smaller fishing boat is used both independently and in conjunction with the larger boats. Watching them reminded me of a childhood story from Japan called "Issun-boshi" an inch-high man who rowed in a round Japanese soup bowl using a chopstick as his oar and a needle as his sword.

Looks a bit like a Welsh coracle. He's dwarfed by those boats.

Great capture. Such colorful boats with the blue and red. And that little doughnut of a bowl is so interesting.
