    bought this cool little (6")fishing boat carving today

    probably not very old

    but i like that about it, its not pretending to be old

    cant seem to find any like it

    lady who had it bought a big lot of different boats from the eyemouth (scotland) fisheries museum

    i couldnt resist for a fiver, but might only be really worth that much

    anyone know what kind of date its from, its hard to judge

    touristy ?

    any thought appreciated

    It is called a 'jukung', but it is missing its floats to stabilize the canoe:

    You could make replacement floats, not too difficult.
    Yes, but who cares.:smug: It is very cute.:)
