General cargo boats are essential for regional and international trade, especially for transporting goods not suited for container shipping.

An oil barge is a flat-bottomed vessel designed to transport large quantities of oil or petroleum products over water. Typically used in rivers, canals, and coastal waters, these barges are either self-propelled or towed by tugboats.

They play a crucial role in the oil and gas industry, providing an efficient and economical means of bulk transport.

Equipped with amenities like bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and lounges, houseboats offer a blend of functionality and leisure. They are often used for recreational purposes, such as vacations and sightseeing, and can be stationary or motorized for cruising. Popular in calm waterways like lakes, rivers, and backwaters, houseboats provide a unique way to experience life on the water.
Purse Seiner
A purse seiner boat is a fishing vessel used for purse seining, a method of encircling schools of fish, such as sardines, mackerel, or tuna, with a large net. The net is drawn tight at the bottom like a drawstring purse, trapping the fish. These boats are designed with powerful winches and cranes to handle the heavy nets and are often equipped with advanced fish-finding technology. Purse seiners are efficient for large-scale fishing operations and are commonly used in both coastal and open-sea fishing.
Trawler
A trawler boat is a fishing vessel designed for trawling, a method of dragging a large, cone-shaped net through the water to catch fish like cod, shrimp, or mackerel. These boats are equipped with powerful engines and winches to tow and haul heavy nets. Trawlers come in various sizes, from small coastal vessels to large industrial ships capable of deep-sea fishing. They often feature onboard facilities for sorting, processing, and preserving the catch.
Longliner Boat
A longliner boat is a specialized fishing vessel designed for longline fishing, a technique where a main fishing line with numerous baited hooks is deployed to catch fish like tuna, swordfish, or cod. These boats are equipped with gear to set and haul longlines, which can extend for miles in the water. Longliners are typically built for endurance, enabling them to operate in deep-sea conditions, and often include refrigerated storage to preserve the catch.
