In the picture above, you can see an engine-powered boat. At the end of the 20th century, around the 90s, I got to know from the village rabbis that engines were installed on the boats of Bangladesh. As a result, the boats became mechanical vessels. These boats are locally made with shallow engines used for water irrigation. Because it is run, it is called an engine-driven boat. The runner is coupled with the engine placed in the middle of the boat through a tone pipe with a specific size hole at the back of the boat. A fan with three fans is attached to the runner's head. Through which the engine moves the boat through the fan.

Boats are so close to life in Bangladesh that many fun games are played around this boat. Boating is still a popular sport, which is still usually organized in our village during the rainy season. Bych boats are up to 50-55 cubits in length. Depending on the size, up to 40-45 people can be in the boat during the competition. These bich boats are again named Bahari type. For example: Sonartari, Shapla, Mayerdwa, Pankhiraj, Hiramani, Lalon Shah etc. The boat of our village is named after Lalon Shah. Our Kushtia Baul Emperor is named after Lalon Shah.

The traditional boats of Kushtia region were six-jointed boats. It is said that these boats have been used for trade and commerce in this region since ancient times. These boats are medium in size, ranging from 20-25 meters in length. There are six in the middle of these boats. The bottom of the boat is usually a little larger. There are two captains at the front and a sailor at the back.

A type of boat was made from the trunk of a palm tree in our country since ancient times. People knew it as palm boat or donga. Donga is quite durable. But the spread is so small that it cannot carry much people or goods. If it is a little like that, there is a possibility that the donga will sink. Dongas can be used for several years as the trunk of the palm tree does not rot easily. But thanks to technology, these boats are no longer seen.

The most famous boat in our country is the dinghy. Those who live on the banks of the river or Hawar-Bawar, use this boat for crossing the river, fishing and other activities. We still go around the river by canoe in the afternoon. Due to its small size, only one sailor is enough to drive this boat. Sometimes sails are also attached to it. Dinghies are still seen in the villages. Most of the dinghies in our village are boats.


I live on the banks of Padma,
I am impressed by his appearance.
There are hundreds of memories on its banks.
At night, the jonakis give light;
It seems like the shadow of heaven!
What a wonderful illusion! "
Poet Talha Aziz
