Featured cool little bali fishing boat carving - vintage ?

bought this cool little (6")fishing boat carving today

probably not very old

but i like that about it, its not pretending to be old

cant seem to find any like it

lady who had it bought a big lot of different boats from the eyemouth (scotland) fisheries museum

i couldnt resist for a fiver, but might only be really worth that much

anyone know what kind of date its from, its hard to judge

touristy ?

any thought appreciated

 

It is called a 'jukung', but it is missing its floats to stabilize the canoe:



You could make replacement floats, not too difficult.

Yes, but who cares. It is very cute.

 

Ah that makes sense

Cool thanks Aj, I thought it looked odd,

He looks like he's trying to crawl without them

 

He could just manage it, he looks like a tough little fellow.
