@ryanlaagan: The Vinta is a traditional outrigger boat from the Philippine island of Mindanao. The boats are made by Sama-Bajau, Tausug and Yakan peoples living in the Sulu Archipelago, Zamboanga peninsula, and southern Mindanao. Vinta are characterized by their colorful rectangular lug sails (bukay) and bifurcated prows and sterns, which resemble the gaping mouth of a crocodile. Vinta are used as fishing vessels, cargo ships, and houseboats. Smaller undecorated versions of the vinta used for fishing are known as tondaan. The Vinta symbolizes the colorful culture and history of Zamboanga. #vinta #ZamboangaHermosa #zamboangahermosafestival #ZamboangaCity #ZamboangaPeninsula #iLoveZamboangaCity #zamboanga #ZOOMINZAMBOANGA #PhilippineHistory #vintaboatinzamboanga #sunsetchaser #rtlimboulevard
