Caption: Left to right: Vessels of the Coromandel coast called DONIS shown here as constructed without balance frames, more like European vessels. COASTER of Celebes in which less account is made of the two rowers, as they have two masts. MANILA COASTER is constructed with low sides, a scaffold twelve to fourteen feet high on each side, made with thick matting. This shows a large balance frame. Manila COASTER illustrating balance frame in a smaller vessel called a PIROGUE.
