In India, the local fishing boat industry has been thriving for centuries, with traditional crafts like the “kattumaram“ or catamaran-style boats being widely used along the coastal regions. These boats are typically made from locally sourced materials such as wood and bamboo, making them eco-friendly and cost-effective for small-scale fishermen. Indian manufacturers have also started producing modern fiberglass fishing boats that are durable and suitable for various water conditions, catering to both domestic and international markets. While the focus here is on Indian products, it\“s worth noting that similar boats are available for sale in the UK, often imported or adapted from global designs to meet local fishing needs. |
