As part that is familiar with the life of the fishing community, this phenom- enon is very interesting as well as important to be studied more deeply in the context of the north coast Javanese sub-culture. Based on that, this study aims to explain: (1) the design of fishing boat construction as a representation of the technology system of traditional fishing communities in Jepara, (2) the ecological aspect of the north coast Javanese sub-culture includes the process of creating traditional fishing boat in Jepara communities, and (3) wisdom potential in traditional ship design as learning resources. This study uses a qualitative approach with case study design. The data is collected through interviews, observations and document reviews, and analyzed by using flow mode.

  • The Comparison of Characteristics Profile of the Traditional Fishing Boats in Lamongan, Probolinggo, and Pasuruan, Indonesia
    Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management Pilsen, Czech Republic, July 23-26, 2019 The Comparison of Characteristics Profile of the Traditional Fishing Boats in Lamongan, Probolinggo, and Pasuruan, Indonesia Yugowati Praharsi, Mohammad Abu Jami’in, Gaguk Suhardjito Shipbuilding Institute of Polytechnic Surabaya (Politeknik Perkapalan Negeri Surabaya) Jl. Teknik Kimia Kampus ITS, Sukolilo 60111, Surabaya, Indonesia [email protected], [email protected] Hui-Ming Wee Chung Yuan Christian University Chung Pei Road No. 200, Chung Li City 32023, Taiwan [email protected] Abstract In this study, we explored the characteristics profile of traditional fishing boats in the three regencies of East Java, Indonesia, namely: Lamongan, Probolinggo, and Pasuruan. We presented the characteristics profiles of traditional fishing boats by using indicators and dimensions of product quality. We found the differences of traditional boats among these three regencies such as the GT size and the hull construction shape. The results showed that the GT size in Lamongan is from 24 to 50 GT sizes on average, whereas in Probolinggo and Pasuruan is below 30 GT ones. The hull shape in Lamongan is uniform with U-shape. Meanwhile, the hull shape in Probolinggo and Pasuruan is varies with U-shape and V-shape. The similarities among these 3 regencies are in the type of fish catching tools, machinery, and equipment. The majority fishermen used trawl automatically for larger than 13 GT sizes and net for below 10 GT sizes. In machinery, inboard system is used by vessels for larger than 13 GT. Meanwhile, the equipment used is standard, such as: lamp, compass, and audio.

  • The Baby Boat Programme
    Transactions on the Built Environment vol 65, © 2003 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 The experience of the boat - the Baby Boat Programme V.Salamon Faculty of Graphic Arts, University of Zagreb, Croatia Abstract The paper presents the showlworkshop "Experience of the Boat" which was established by the NGO Ars Halieutica to be performed for and with the active participation of the local children. The show and the workshops are performed both on the shore and on the water. The show "Ala Falka!" is presented in order to inspire the children to express their new experience of the boat in a painting, a sculpture, a poem etc., in the subsequent art workshops. The idea of the ship and the boat is presented through the story of the two traditional Adriatic boats - the simple trupa from the river Neretva delta and the - more complex fishing boat gajeta falkusa the vessels small enough to present the archetypal essence of the boat in a simple and intimate way. Although structurally elementary but including all the basic features of the boat and the ship, both the trupa and the gajeta are the boats of fascinating functional complexness. According to the Ars Halieutica "Do Touch" principle, the polytechnic heritage and the experience of living with the sea is presented through animation of all senses of the children and other participants of the programme. Taking active part in the events, the children are offered to: touch while building the paper or wooden kit ship and boat models, buildinglassembling the actual trupa and the gajeta falkusa, paddling and rowing and sailing the gajeta and the trupa etc., watch the actual building of the trupa and the gajeta, documentary films on life with the sea, on the sailing of the gajeta falkusa etc., listen to the poetry in native dialect, to the songs and music about the sea, about the boat and the man etc., taste and scent the traditional national food and beverages, aromatic Mediterranean island herbs etc.
