A small, light, flat-bottomed boat unique to the Ryukyu region, with a long, narrow hull. Originally it was a full log boat, but today, because large timber is no longer available, the sides are usually made of three planks joined together. Although it is a small, flat-bottomed boat, it used to be possible to row out quite far into the ocean to fish, but in recent years, outboard motors have been installed, allowing the boat to travel even further.

平底で細長い船型をもつ琉球地方独特の軽快な小船。本来は完全な丸木船であったが，今日では大木が入手できないため，普通3枚の板をはぎ合せて側板を造っている。平底の小船ながら，かなりの沖合いまで漕ぎ出して漁をしていたが，近年は船外機をつけるようになって，その行動範囲をさらに広くしている。
