Yakan - balanda'

balanda'

A fishing boat with mast; a vinta.

It can be close to 20 m long, narrower and of lighter construction than a basnig.

Kalangan: Bang patulak balanda'in, pa'agak-agak pa'in, kaw buhew si munda'in, basse' jambu sutla'in.

A song: When the vinta is sailing it goes carefully; perhaps the boat will capsize and the silken tassles get wet.

basnig binta' kulibu bewutu
