Could watch this for hours, a testament to our resourcefulness.

I have seen a lot of boatbuilding methods, I've never seen the dowel and bark technique before. Also, the painting on these boats makes them real works of art.

I don't undertand why this doesn't have more views. Great job!

Could be because they use modern boat building methods ...There is not a lot of tradition going on here

[@arboristBlairGlenn]

Michael Wall maybe but I Am still impressed

@@Interdiction There were quite a lot of old boat building methods there too.

Very instructive to see boats built in such a different way that I am used to. So many ways to get a good result. I respect those who can make such a beautiful boats with fairly simple tools. And those stunning decorative paintings ... However, I wouldn't want to have to repaint the boat when it's time for refurbishment :-D Simply amazing!

Thank you so much for documenting and sharing. Malay boatbuulding is as fine as european boatbuilding but less well-known.

Great video, also would like to see finished boats on the water and how they're used.

This was amazing. Thanks for sharing!

Great! Could've done with some sexy shots of the boats on the water as a payoff though
