For many centuries these boats sailed the Tagus Rivers until the begining of the 20th century when they disappeared from our waters...Or did they?
A number of city councils around the Tagus Estuary decided to bring some of these legendary boats back to life, so using local knowledge from our Shipyard Masters and their crew's they managed to accomplish these tremendous projects using traditional methods to build such vessels.
The Varino a 38 tonnes flat bottom cargo boat
The Bote a 22 Tonnes keeled boat
The Muleta a 18 Tonnes fishing boat
They are works of art nowadays, a lot different from when they were used to make a living. You can get aboard any of them and go for a sail in the waters of the Tagus.
These are amazing boats even today so imagine them on their own era and the importance they had to the development of all river side towns and villages.
