Traditional Filipino outrigger fishing boats, known as 'bangka' boats or pump boats, have no keel and are constructed this way to drift over shallow seas and coral reefs. They are fitted with two outriggers to offer support on rough seas. Bangka boats now have roles ranging from transporting goods to remote islands to serving as tourist taxis to diving expedition boats and ferries. Pictured: bangka boats moored at Buyong on Mactan Island, in Cebu in the Philippines.
