A panga is a traditional fishing boat commonly utilized in coastal regions around the world. Known for its simple and functional design, the panga features a flat-bottomed or shallow V-shaped hull, enabling navigation in shallow waters. The boat typically has an open deck layout, providing versatility for activities like fishing, transportation, and carrying passengers. Powered by a single outboard motor at the stern, pangas are easy to operate. With a wide beam for stability, these boats serve various purposes, including fishing, ferrying passengers, and recreational use. Pangas are recognized for their durable construction, making them suitable for the demands of coastal and nearshore environments.
