Sampan
A sampan is a relatively flat bottomed Chinese wooden boat from twelve to fifteen feet long. Some sampans include a small shelter on board, and may be used as a permanent habitation on inland waters. Sampans are generally used for fishing or transportation, in coastal areas or rivers. It is unusual for a sampan to sail far from land as they do not have the means to survive rough weather.
The term sampan literally means three planks in Cantonese language, it is derived from the words Sam (three) and pan (plank).
Sampans are still in use by rural residents of Southeast Asia, particularly Malaysia, Indonesia and Vietnam.
Sampans may be propelled by oars or may be fitted with outboard motors. These motors may be powered by petrol. However, not all outboard motors are petrol powered (such as the electric motors used in a Malaysian firefly sanctuary, as petrol fumes are toxic to fireflies.)

Flat bottommed boats are OK for shallow calm water & will get slapped around in chop. A deeper V hull cuts through chop & rides better. Best regards
