Abstract:	Around the shores of the Maltese Islands, one can see various small, working boats which developed over a period of hundreds of years. When we refer to the traditional boats of Malta we refer to the five that have survived and which show the same constructional characteristics. It is interesting to note that one may come across certain local boats which originated after 1800 with the introduction of British rule in Malta but which do not comply with the traditional characteristics .
