“Description: Philippines typical Pa**enger Pump Boat. “
___________________________________________

That is a passenger boat. I have taken one a few times from Negros back to Cebu..30 min. trip.
Those are the same design and shape as the standard fishing boat here, but much larger.
I usually, as I did today, take the conventional broad hull ferry,
The little boats for one or two people, and without a motor,
are all the same hull shape and with the outriggers.
None of them could stay upright without the out-rigging.
