SEAPHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST • WEEK 112 • SEA and BOATS.

Boats come in many forms of shape , size , colors and style they are a essential everyday use in all corners of the world , boats of all kind play a big roll in transportation across our vast oceans whether it be people or cargo and then we have the luxury boats to fishing boats but no matter how a boat looks they all seem to have there own beauty and characteristics while i was touring the island of Koh Samui in Thailand , i came across some really awesome speedboats and Tailboats the Thai people really have a passion for there boats they were all kept very tidy and expensive looking with many outboard motors hanging out the back but the one i took most liking to was these traditional Tailboats they came with a 4 or 6 cylinder tilted swiveling motor hooked up on the back of the boat with a long propeller shaft running out of the motor and this was all controlled by the captain with another long hand shaft coming out the other end of the motor really ingenious the way they had all this working in synchronization and these Tailboats really picked up some radical speeds for transporting tourist to other islands they were as popular as the Tuk-Tuk's in Thailand every tourist wanted to ride these Tailboats and believe me i rode a few while i was on the island these Tailboats would be highly illegal back in my country in they way they were structured so i was taking full advantage of riding them while i was here on the island.

Very similar to Cambodian style boats, but these things appear to sit a little higher in the water. !tan
