Shanty boats are flat bottom boats used by the fishherders of the [[Fallaya Basin]]. They vary in size, but the are generally only large to hold a small one or two room shack with enough space to walk around the outside on the deck.

The flat bottom and small size of the shanty boat allow them to be moved across shallows and small embankments with less trouble than a normal boat which comes in handy in the ever shifting deep swamp. | Shanty boats are flat bottom boats used by the fishherders of the [[Fallaya Basin]].
