You can see another one anchored just off the beach so I dunno the one I was on was a full thirty feet, but of course being they're all carved out of a tree trunk they are all different. You can see the handle to the outboard behind the one guy. Most of the canoe is filled up with the net. Those things on the mast are kerosene lanterns, they keep 'em up there to help keep them dry, they spend the night tied to the net floats so the guys can see where the net is. Its a drift net, they play it out and tie one end to the canoe. Under Tropical conditions, eating the local foods, Western guys typically become skinny as a rail, which is why I'm so thin. Women on the other hand typically put on 20lbs, something to do with metabolism.
